Can you please tell me which clients pay to be given highly valuable insights like "streamline procurement"? I'll pitch a project right away. Thanks.

Ask yourself "what does that look like" "how will they measure success". I think SMART goals are helpful to avoid generalities.

Also helps to have some practical real-world experience. You'll learn real quick theory often evaporates in practice

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.
