Something you’re passionate about? Think about any hobbies/passions you have and if you had to work towards sth. It could even be a project you were really into. I’m not a McK fish though. Good luck, OP!

That’s a fake feedback

^P1 what do you mean by fake feedback?

That little extra effort against something you didn’t “have” to do, every day, overtime will make you invaluable

One of the reasons I want to transition from industry to consulting (tier 1) is that I get frustrated when I have to collaborate with mediocre people. My assumption is that Tier 1 consulting firms hire really sharp people and if I can get in, I’ll be collaborating with folks on top of their game (not expecting much from clients). I’m aware there are personal aspects I need to work on like my mindset, patience etc etc, but I just get so frustrated with blatant stupidity.
