Get to know the products you will be building, then check the architecture of the products. E.g a web page, how do they implement the MVC? What kind databases are they using? Is it a cloud solution? Security -PID? All those things... anyone can make things pretty and design crap that is not compatible with the current technology.

Architecture. Make sure you can articulate a solution not only from the functional side but provide inputs on the foundations.

A1, that’s for the input. Can you give me an example of a couple of foundational inputs?

Told a friend of mine in tech I was considering moving to BCG. He asked me if I would have to move to Boston.

I followed up by asking what he thought the top consulting firms were. "I'd guess PwC and then McKinsey are the best. I've also heard of KPMG, Deloitte, and Bain, but I don't know much about them."

Just a reminder that outside our bubble no-one really cares about firm prestige etc.
