Hello everyone 

 

I’m on the final round of interviews for all MBB, Kearney and S& Middle East offices mainly Riyadh office. I’m wondering what would be the average yearly pay for each of these companies for an MBA level consultant position. I’m most likely will receive an offer from Bain and Kearney next week as I did well on the interviews.

 

Thanks

Bain 

Base $145K

Year-end Bonus $18k

Signing and relocation $40k

Hi there, 

Your best bet would be to get in touch with a few consultants in the region, ask for their support during the application process (perhaps even doing mock cases together), gradually building a relationship and then asking them for a salary range that you should be expecting.

Otherwise, go for something like Glassdoor. 

In theory, as an MBB consultant at least your not allowed to share your salary publicly, which is why it's so hard to get real numbers anywhere. 

Best of luck!

Hi!

Congrats!

I can't give you an exact figure. I'd recommend checking out Glassdoor and LinkedIn or directly reach out to other consultants in Riyadh.

Best,

Anto

Hi not sure about the salaries, but I did just apply to these offices last month and would love to get in touch about how you found the experience interviewing at these offices!
