Hi Anonymous,
big 4 audit or advisory is pretty different from strategy consulting, thus you would not benefit from the lateral hires opportunities that non-MBB strategy consultants may have, with lower chances to get an interview.

In order to increase your chances you may opt for the following:
In case that doesn’t work, you may also consider doing an MBA first; this will take more time and money but could increase your chances significantly.
