Seems that many banks and consulting firms are desperate for talent and they are taking laterals more readily that would have been quite difficult in the past. How long do you think this hiring boom in banking and consulting will last? And do you think this has changed the mindset of needing an MBA to make career moves into Banking and Consulting if you are coming from adjacent areas such as Big 4?

As long as people are willing to continue quitting their current jobs in IB and consulting, then the hiring boom probably won't be stopping anytime soon. I'm curious if longitudinally we're going to see people leave IB much earlier than their 2-year stint (i.e. more like 1 year or 18 months, and then moving on), or if things will normalize again. I think that will be the ultimate way of noticing if things will change. My guess is that eventually this hiring boom will slow, but that a lower percentage will compete their 2-year stint in full.

how long will this hiring boom last?
