Hey! Quick question about consulting:

嘿大家。快速问题:

I'm a junior at a target school, double major in poli-sci/history. I want to go into consulting; I have a 3.4 GPA. however, I have a resume full of public service paid work experience (US Senate, Worked for the mayor, worked for the school board, worked for a non-profit. this is all while in college - I've consistently worked about 25 hrs/wk on top of 2 leadership positions in extracurriculars (VP of fraternity, VP of a student club) and a full college courseload.

现在,您可能会在想:“为什么要咨询,为什么不为政府工作?”,我上次政府实习(美国参议院)绝对被吸吮(分类邮件40小时/周,持续了三个月),完全让我失望了为政府工作。

Also, money is definitely a factor in why I'm considering consulting. no point in lying to myself about it. it is what it is.

Now, several good friends of have went into consulting and I've often helped them practice cases and I really enjoyed doing them (particularly the book case in point). And to be honest, I firmly believe that if the government solved problems the way businesses/consultants did then there would be less waste and more productivity. But that's a whole different debate.

无论如何,我的问题是:我有现实的镜头,在poli-sci/历史上有3.4 GPA?我的一个朋友在贝恩(上海办公室)获得了一个要约,并以3.5为poli-sci/East Asian Studies Double Major,这有点让我感到希望。我将在所有主要公司中尝试我的手,而不仅仅是顶级层。有什么想法吗?建议?还是我应该在领先时辞职并节省一堆必要的压力?

Not really a quick question, but the quick answer is:

不要退出,去吧。不过,不要只限制自己才能贝恩。

去吧。您可能有兴趣在Booz或顾问委员会做某事。来自目标,您肯定有一枪。如果我没记错的话(自从我经过咨询招聘以来已经有一段时间了),来自各种学校的明矾有助于选择孩子们面试。话虽如此,如果您确实认识这些公司的人,那么一定要开始网络。

低于3.5会使它非常困难MBB,除非您治愈了癌症,否则是麻省理工学院的工程毕业生(或与伴侣相关的较小的学院,或者在学校很少有足够的高级专业的专业)。

您似乎很适合德勤/Accenture/Booz Allen, in DC. I'd target your networking outsideMBB.

还有其他意见吗?现在,我正在校园招聘,提交求职信/简历,参加职业博览会等。如果我本学期可以提取4.0,则可以将GPA提高到3.51。这会给我带来多少更好的位置?如果我没有summer internshipat a consulting firm, what do you suggest I do this summer to maximize my chances of being successful next fall when I apply for full-time offers?

Getting yourGPA达到3.51可能有助于闯入MBB
