I'm looking to get into consulting with only about 1 year of work experience after undergraduate. I currently work in the Midwest at a Fortune 100 CPG company as a financial analyst. I like finance but would like broader exp before business school and am also looking to move out of the Midwest. Went to a good liberal arts school in Midwest and had 3.65GPA but it is relatively unheard of outside of its' metro area. Wasn't sure what I wanted to do after school and didn't have many consulting opportunites so I continued from my summer internship and joined a great finance program. Had one connection into Deloitte and did very well on the first interview. During the final round was thrown by the amount of math and fell apart trying to keep all of the info straight. I would love to hear insight on how to best position myself for a job at a top 5 firm. Two possible options I can see are:1. Sell myself as a entry level candidate with 1 year of successfull work expeience at a good company. I could try to get into the Fall recruiting schedule with the senior class and get interviews by showing that while I didn't go to an Ivy League, I already work at a great place and have had success. 2. Be an experienced hire. I know little about this process or if it even happens often at the entry level. How do I make contact? When do they look exp hires? What can I expect the recrut=iting process to look like?Any insights would be greatly appreciated!
