In this episode, we share an overview of McKinsey Insight, Bridge to BCG, and Bain ADvantage, application deadlines, resume and interview tips, and more!

Top firms are recruiting Advanced Degree Candidates (ADCs) - PhDs, JDs, and MDs - in full-force. One aspect of that effort is through these summer "bridge" programs.

These programs are a chance for candidates to get to know the firms' work and culture, network with consultants, and in most cases, end up with a first-round interview invite for a full-time consulting role. If you're an ADC, you don't want to miss this episode.
