Thanks for the advice. What firms would you recommend contacting? Which ones should I avoid? Thanks again....divot |

1) Get the feedback from McK (it might be uncomfortable, but policy is to be totally honest with rejected candidates).
2) If relevant, try again in a few years.
3) Apply to the other strat houses (who do the same-ish things and are pretty great in their own right): BCG, Bain, Mercer, Monitor, Booz, ATK.
Could be that you have all the right stuff to be a consultant and just weren't the right fit for McK, but are the perfect fit for, say, Bain. Remember to do your homework on the culture and the industries/work that each of these different firms do!
