shoot i was at least hoping we'd be perceived better than acn... i always think of them as lame...kinda body-shop-ish...(just biased by the people from college that i knew that got hired there)
my last job was kinda dull though the company was big. i did more important stuff at DC. thats my other dillema. my career hit its peak at age 23. i cant draw very good examples of all those traits they want you to show (leadersihp, initiative, etc...) from this job.
i dont think id ever return to deloitte... it wasnt really the best fit. plus i am out of IT for good. |

Talk to some of your former colleagues at Deloitte. Get your hands on the grad school prep presentation that is circulated in the summer.
Deloitte has ~40% acceptance rates at Harvard and Wharton. Around 70% at Kellogg. Don't remember others off-hand.
Former DC analysts do much better at these schools than ACN, IBM, EDS, etc. Just go visit a class, look at the club resume books, etc. Deloitte has a far stronger presence at top B-schools.
As far as title, don't worry about it. Plenty of former SAs go to these schools. You probably know some and don't even realize it. So long as you have good project experience from DC to talk about, it is definitely a card worth playing.
