Message: The Top Consulting Firms recruit at my school in Canada for the Toronto Office. However, I would much rather work in the New York Office. How much do you think it hurts my chances if I request the New York Office in the Cover Letter I submit to Career Services? The Toronto people said that they would communicate with the New York Office about such instances and decide which office would handle us. But how less likely do you think I am to be hired by the office for which they are not specifically recruiting at my school Also, does anyone have any suggestions on handling questions about why I would rather go to NYC (without insulting the Toronto people or telling them the truth: That NYC is just a much better city!)? Thank you very much for your advice.
