Given 8 years of Middle office risk management experience in a financial firm, which track more right. Entering MBB or Tier 2 as general track or as a financial expert track?

Hi there,
It really depends on what you're looking to get out of consulting.
If you join the generalist track, you'll have the opportunity to explore a wider range of industries and functions, which can be valuable if you're looking to broaden your experience and keep your future career options open.
If you join as a financial services or risk expert, you'll likely be staffed more often on risk management, finance, regulatory, or banking-related projects. This allows you to leverage your 8 years of experience more directly, build credibility faster, and potentially create value from day one.
Neither path is inherently better—the right choice depends on whether your priority is to diversify your experience or deepen and capitalize on your existing expertise.
Best,
Anna
