I have a PhD in Pharmaceutical Sciences from the top Pharmacy school in the country (non-Ivy) and by the time I hope to transition to consulting (middle of next year, after preparation/case practice!), I would have had 2 years of full time work experience in the pharma industry in clinical R&D in oncology. I do like my current job but feel that management conulting would give me broader exposure to the industry and leadership experience. How would my chances be with MBB, and are there any specific timelines to apply? Some ways down the line, but if I did get a chance to work at one of these firms, would I be consulting primarily for the health-care indutry, or would I be exposed to different industries?
Thanks for the feedback, appreciate it! Would the title be equivalent to entry-level MBA grads? Also, what is the average compensation at this level? I was looking at mid-Atlantic and NE offices
