In 1976, Netanyahu graduated near the top of his class at the MIT Sloan School of Management,[37] and was headhunted to be an economic consultant[38] for the Boston Consulting Group in Boston, Massachusetts, working at the company between 1976 and 1978. At the Boston Consulting

Group, he was a colleague of Mitt Romney, with whom he formed a lasting friendship. Romney remembers that Netanyahu at the time was: "[A] strong personality with a distinct point of view", and says "[w]e can almost speak in shorthand... [w]e share common experiences and have

a perspective and underpinning which is similar."[37] Netanyahu said that their "easy communication" was a result of "B.C.G.'s intellectually rigorous boot camp".

At BCG, he was a colleague of Benjamin Netanyahu, with whom he formed a friendship that has lasted for more than 40 years.[66]
In 1977, he was hired by Bain & Company, a management consulting firm in Boston formed a few years earlier by Bill Bain and several other ex-BCG

employees. Bain later said of the 30-year-old Romney, "He had the appearance of confidence of a guy who was maybe ten years older."Romney became a vice president of the firm in 1978,[17] working with such clients as the Monsanto Company, Outboard Marine Corporation,

Burlington Industries, and Corning Incorporated. Romney worked to ensure the Games's safety after the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks by coordinating a $300 million security budget. He oversaw a $1.32 billion budget, 700 employees, and 26,000 volunteers.
