Hello everyone,

I've recently got an offer from artefact as a data strategy consultant in Lebanon office. How would such experience enhance my chances in getting an interview at a MBB company.

Thank you in advance.

Hi there,

First of all, congratulations on the offer from Artefact!

I would be happy to share my thoughts on your question:

  • First of all, it obviously depends on the actual tasks you will be performing, but generally, the closer a role is to strategy consulting, the more it may help you.
  • Moreover, I am a bit concerned whether you only accepted the offer as a lever to eventually work at MBB. I would highly advise you to experience working at Artefact for at least 1-2 years before making a decision about applying to MBB (again) – who knows, maybe you’ll like the work a lot and it is more suited to you personally.

If you would like a more detailed discussion on your specific situation, please don't hesitate to contact me directly.

Best,

Hagen

Hi there,

It depends on many factors:

1. Employment history

  • Your previous work experience
  • Your current employer, role, and progression (personally, I don't know the company so I can't really comment on that)

2. Education

  • University brand and program prestige
  • GPA

3. Other things

  • Leadership experience and extracurriculars
  • Time spent abroad

All the best with the new job!

Cheers,

Florian
