All of the top schools place people into HC/Bio/Pharma, some more than others. A growing trend is people going to MBB for 2-3 years and moving to a smaller consulting firm specializing in HC, or moving into other HC management roles. You even have IB folks who move over to corporate finance jobs in the HC industry.
