How do I break into management consulting / corporate finance / analytics at 25?
My stats are -
Bsc econ (top regional college example escp, hec, bocconi, UCL)
Msc information management (American uni like Indiana or BU)
4 internships at fortune 500s in finance, analytics and business intelligence
2 consulting projects
1 job at a luxury brand management startup in project management and brand management
I am still doing dead end Internships at fortune 500s and unfortunately no one in my country knows about the schools that I graduated from. What are my options? Am I too late? I just turned 25 this month. I am not very picky and don't want to just aim for MBB. Is a top mba the only way forward?
I'd say that your age is definitely not the problem. Being 25, you'll probably be 2-3 years older only than other analysts and you still had some interesting experience. With some firms (maybe not MBB but potentially Tier 2), you might even aim for Senior Analyst positions, where you'd be just as old as everyone else. If you can, I would look where your BSc school is better known (I assume this is Europe) as your experience in the US would definitely be an asset there.
