<p>This looks like a really interesting field that I would much rather work in then ibanking. Though...what are the colleges that recruiters go to most to find people for consulting jobs? I only know that nyu stern would not be a good choice.</p>
<p>Edit: Also, what majors are typical of consultants?</p>
<p>Why would stern not be a good choice?</p>
<p>Is it not a good choice for you or not a good choice for consulting?</p>
<p>I heard that recruiting is not good for management consulting there…but this may be wrong.</p>
<p>West coast–USC, Washington, Pepperdine and the top UCs–possibly Oregon, but their location hurts their recruiting.</p>
<p>East Coast–too long to list here</p>
<p>Midwest and Mountain states–Michigan, Northwestern, Chicago, Indiana, Wisconsin, Illinois, Emory (should I include this in the East coast group?), Rice, Texas, WUSL, Michigan State, Ohio State, Notre Dame, Tulane, BYU, possibly Utah and Arizona State and Arizona</p>
<p>Thanks, so basically most good schools place well? And what is the expected major…management?</p>
<p>I would wager that there is a huge difference among schools in terms of the opportunities at top firms (ie McKinsey, BCG, Bain) and even 2nd tier firms. </p>
<p>As for major, I can’t say exactly because I was never involved in the undergrad mgt consulting process, but I would guess that companies are pretty open in regards to majors, and would also expect that finance majors would often have a slight edge over mgt majors (correct me if u disagree)…depending on the prestige of the mgt major at the school and the exact curriculum (ie, if mgt majors do consulting practicums this would definitely make them more marketable).</p>
