Are MBA students more competitive if they apply to an MBB office well aligned with their professional background and want to eventually specialize in that area (ex: strong oil and gas background applying to Bain Dallas, strong finance background applying to McK NYC, etc.)?
Given entry level consultants start as generalists and the early interview stages are with more junior / generalist types (or so I think…), hoping to get some clarity on what if any difference this would make?
Thank you
