<p>As I’ve stated ANobservation, I have first hand experience as a consultant and recruiter at MBB (McKinsey to be exact). Hell, I’ve even done recruiting at Stanford for McKinsey also, being a Stanford alum. Yet, as a recruiter, I’ve never heard of company execs viewing LSE and Stanford in the same light. But who knows, I’m sure you’re pulling this from somewhere. So don’t take offense if I completely refuse to acknowledge your opinions. I also have access to the McKinsey network to see if any first year analysts were hired from LSE to the US directly immediately after their bachelors. I can’t seem to find any.</p>
<p>But to prove me wrong and since you claim to work at another high level consulting firm, why don’t you cite some linkedin profiles of first year analysts for an elite consulting who’ve moved from LSE to the US immediately after graduation from LSE with a bachelor’s? That is after all what we are arguing about. It would make a lot of sense for MBB to hire an LSE grad, sponsor their visa, and potentially pay a hefty relocation bonus after all over hiring a top US university grad. Anyways, this little exercise should not be hard if you really do work at one and do know analysts. Or hell, find me a job posting from MBB or a booz level firm citing recruitment to a US office for LSE grads.</p>
