Freshmen and sophomores - it's time to act. Application deadlines for summer "early entry" programs are coming due as soon as February 23 at firms like KPMG, Bain, PwC, and BCG. These programs represent a streamlined path into consulting - if you can get in. 

Today's conversation is with Alex Poroy, who participated in multiple early entry programs on his way to an Associate Consultant role at Bain. He breaks down:

  • Who these early entry programs are for
  • Why to consider applying
  • Benefits of participating
