Recruiting Lead at BCG

Michael Mascarenhas

After graduating from Cornell University with a B.S. in Applied Economics in Management, I worked for 4.5 years in New York City with PricewaterhouseCoopers Advisory, the PwC internal M&A team, and Strategy& as a Management Consultant. I then moved to Barcelona, Spain, and pursued a bilingual MBA from IESE Business School, graduating in 2017. After my MBA, I worked at IESE, spending 2000+ hours advising students on consulting recruitment, how to best achieve career goals, and off-campus, network-driven job hunting. I am currently working at Boston Consulting Group as an International Campus Recruiting Lead, still in Barcelona. I focus my effort on university relations, as well as planning and facilitating on-campus recruitment for schools in Spain.
