Hello Everyone! I'm a student at IIT Dhanbad. I researched a bit about Management consulting and found it interesting. Can anyone suggest me how to start and also some tips to land a job or internship in the same profile considering the fact that I will pass out in 2022

Okay! But I don't have any interest in coding and being in my 3rd year already I think this can be the field where I can learn fast compared to other fields till my placement starts. Since you're a professional what's your advice?

Do your research well I'd say. Consulting may appear very rosy from outside but also evaluate it well with other option.

If you want to be here only for money, trust me there are better opportunities other than MC which pay decent enough. Do what you love, love what you do.

Let me tell you, I love the flexibility at my firm, OK pay, and I do a great job, and am comfortable pushing back when I have too much work . BUT managers are terrible at planning and recently end up putting me in preventable situations where I need to work 55 hrs or have the staff work the 55 hours. I literally cannot since I have a family and my daughter is only in day care a few hours a day, I'm already doing my max work. Is it crazy that I may want to leave Bc I hate making ppl miserable?
