recently got rejected by mbb, been working in industry for 6 years. Is the re apply time fixed? What’s the range and what is it dependent on?
thanks, mike.

Hi anonymous,
At least in London, I know several people that were rejected in 2016 that reapplied (and received offers) in 2017 from MBB. However, these were recent university graduates so it may be different for experienced hires.
The best (and only) way to be sure is to email/call the recruiting/HR team from the companies to check.
Hi Anonymous,
the standard reapplication time in MBB is 2 years. If your performance was borderline, you may also be able to reapply in a shorter period of time (usually 6 months or 1 year), if that’s the case they would have to communicate it explicitly though.
Best,
Francesco
I believe the fixed re-apply time is 18 months - for McK I am certain this is the case, and I assume BCG/Bain are about the same. If you have 6 years industry experience, you may want to consider an MBA as a path into consulting.
Hi, the ban usually last 12-18 months, depending on the firm and the geography

Dear A,
Applying again through the referral doesn't make sense within the next 12-18 months when your profile is frozen.
Also in that case I would strongly recommend using someone's referral to get your profile on the top of the pile and increase your chances of being invited again.
Hope it helps,
Wish you best of luck,
Andrè
