I applied to Marakon but haven't heard back; a friend of mine has received an invitation to LEK's online assessment for the Associate position.

Thanks for replying. Do you know if Marakon only reply to those successful in CV screening? Did your friend receive an invite to the Applied platform test or zoom test for LEK?
LEK sent their applied test a while ago. Is that what you mean?
Yeah I've completed Applied but haven't heard anything since. Assuming that means rejection since interviews are out?
Yes, they've sent out the test a while ago (but only for the Associate position as far as I'm concerned); I applied to the Life Sciences Specialist and haven't heard back yet

Does rejection from the McKinsey and Company case workshop hinder my ability to apply for the open roles in London, and will I be subject to the 12-month waiting period?

Hi I work as a private equity / M&A lawyer in London considering a shift to MBB. My attraction stems from the more commercial / strategic thinking I believe consulting will give me and I can later leverage that to either pivot to (i) industry; or (ii) private equity. Thoughts?
