Consulting

Consulting is a big, one-size-fits-all term that includes virtually any form of advice-giving. Many people think first of management consulting, also called strategy consulting, which specializes in providing advice about strategic and core operational issues – but there are many other types of consulting, including marketing consulting, technology consulting, human resources consulting, just to name a few. Through professionals in the field and in collaboration with the Bentley Consulting Group, the Consulting Career Community will expose students to the consulting industry, relevant career paths, required competencies, and the all-important case interview technique.

Case Interview Examples

For those pursuing careers in consulting, mastering the case interview is a critical component of a successful recruitment process. The best way to work towards that mastery is to practice practice practice!

On their website, M Consulting prep provides links to a wealth of sample case interview questions. Set aside some time every week for yourself to work through these cases as you continue to prep for interviews.

The Impact of Reneging on a Job/Internship Offer

Think about this scenario:  a student had a positive summer internship experience at ABC Company and was extended an offer for full-time employment at the end of their internship. ABC Company gave the student two weeks to decide if they will accept that offer or not. The student, wanting to ensure that they have a job at graduation, hastily accepts the offer.
