Another role that consultancy fills that she didn't mention at <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="1740">29:00</a> mark is that C suite hire consultants to say the things the C suite wants to hear as a way to give it legitimacy before employees, shareholders etc, or to have someone to shift blame to in case it's an unpopular decision - the good ol "I didn't wanna do this, but the consultants strongly recommend...."

I found this was really helpful and informative. Great video and very well put together....you asked the right questions and addressed a lot of my concerns about getting into consulting. Now, I just have to put in the work because I'm not coming from an Ivy league school with first class grades.

@lonhua7551 2 года назад

Viewer from New Zealand here! Stumbled across your channel and have really enjoyed these sorts of videos, providing a lot of insight and real-world stories of being in the field of 'x'. I've just started (kinda) in my consulting journey, working in Biotech and while joining MBB is far from a reality (for now), it's nice to know there is hope for those which did not study in particular subject areas directly relevant for consulting.

@KobiPresents1 2 года назад

I just applied for BCG’s Bridge To Consulting event. Only reason I’m considering consulting is because you brought it up, Ben. I have no idea how you manage to pump out all this high quality content.

Awesome Content man!

@rareliquidcareers 2 года назад

Appreciate it!

@johnjinsookim 2 года назад

Ben! If you think that showing your subscribers a different view on breaking into BCG as a lateral rather than straight out of undergrad, would be happy to contribute to your channel.

@jasleengulati5562 2 года назад

Hi John, I have been trying to get into consultancy, I am currently in VMware working as a Sr. Finance Analyst. So it would be a lateral shift for me too. Would be grateful to you to let me pick your brain, please let me know!! thank you

I work at BCG as a GRC Corporate Consultant, and luckily they let me work remotely. I can say BCG is a good company, with decent benefits, and salary. I didn't have a hard time getting hired, however I was a Temp employee and then went fulltime. I have heard that going through a temp agency is much easier to get your foot in the door, than trying a direct hire.

@mukhammadumarfozilov4290 Год назад

Hello. Can you tell me a bit details of how to apply for Temp employee position?

@aliciacantaro Год назад

Hi! Could you please explain how did you first started as a temp employee? How did you manage to go to BCG through a temp agency?

@jeanjacque9887 2 года назад

First step to going at any top tier consulting or investment bank, graduate from ivy league school. Then its just preparation.

@devmodi6466 2 года назад

Everything is secondary, the only thing which I realized is you need to get into top B schools to get into consulting

@thily 2 года назад

As someone who is about to graduate college, would you recommend trying to land an internship with these type of companies first or pursuing an entry level position first?

@devinhohtx 2 года назад

internship for sure. make it a top priority

@vim7996 7 месяцев назад

If it's so difficult to get job in BCG how difficult it will for someone to get job offer from all 3 MBB's, in USA after MBA from USA. I understand acceptance level is below 1% in MBB's in USA.

How can anyone with zero business experience ie they've never started a business themselves give advice? From what experience base are they calling on?
