Joining a top-tier management consulting firm like McKinsey, Bain, and BCG in their US offices as a non-US citizen is tough at the best of times - let alone now.
But there are no US-based employers more willing and capable of sponsoring a visa and guaranteeing their employees a path to a green card - not to mention the incredible value, experience, and credentials their brand adds to your resume.
Join 3 of Leland's top Asia-based consulting recruitment coaches, each with experience working in an MBB US office, for a panel discussion about what international applicants should consider as you prepare for recruitment into elite global consulting firms.

Less than a third of PhDs get tenure-track jobs. The vast majority of PhDs are left to figure out the labyrinth of a non-academic job market on their own. Yet, the industry job market is far from the panacea it was touted to be: intense competition, mass layoffs, dwindling job security, lack of intellectual rigor, lack of time freedom, discriminatory treatment of international job candidates. This talk will take an honest look at the challenges faced by PhDs in both academia and industry. We will explore ways to design a fulfilling career that provides financial stability for doing what you enjoy.
