Guys there’s this boot camp that I came across that trains people to get jobs in Top consulting firms and has a fee plan wherein you pay once you get placed. I just wanted to know if someone here has any experience with this ?

People who think they’re smart fall behind because they miss opportunities to learn new things, real intelligence is knowing that there’s always more to learn
I normally wouldn't say this, but 🎏 bowl is anonymous, so what the hell, my IQ is super high, I have always been an overachiever, but at some point it starts to matter less and less... it's all about being at the right place at the right time, doing the right thing, the right way, for the right reasons, and you know, working your ass off. I have definitely been lapped by less intelligent people who outworked me.
Why would she/he call you by the name of your school? Weird
EY1 - so much to learn. It overwhelms me.
Can relate here, I think my intelligence is average at best. I do think I have a very good work ethnic, partly to make up for the lack of superior intelligence
Well, look at the president of the US. You can be in the last 20% an still be successful.
It is not high intelligence but average intelligence coupled with lot of Grit will get you move up in many places.
Lol D1, Like S has some on J huh?
Work smarter not harder
OP, you would be a rock star at BAH!
Going the other way here- I’m smart, hard working, went to good schools and feel like there’s a huge bias & I don’t get role b/c people are intimidated.
Yeah the other thing is the first few promotions are based on effort. Making it to D is based on potential and P is based on $$$
P3- not the case at all, but thanks. The Partner that I work for literally calls me by the name of the school I went to. I’ve worked very hard for everything I have achieved, including paying my own way. Just saying, it goes both ways & OP should be thankful for the luck.
D7 good point (as sad as it is). A3 I'd say that probably has a lot to do with it.. I am very likable, hard working, and have a great attitude, but I can't help but envy those who do well naturally with seemingly little effort.
Humility shows and is appreciated by partners and clients. I too am not the fastest mind in the room but still rock projects regularly
It can be a curse to be too smart. Things come way too easy and one never builds a sense of hard work, perseverance, and failure. Those three things are as important IMO
Definitely no incriminating pictures 🙄
Op same here, somehow things happenned, right place right time, but I don’t think I am smarter than others. I dint even get MBA admit !!!
Today’s average is tomorrow’s superstar...
You might not have high IQ, but high EQ is very valuable. Networking is everything. I bet everybody loves you and you’ve helped everybody in some capacity. Either that or you are gritty and ask for what you want and do decent research to back up your claims
Do you work harder than they do? I assume you do and effort pays off. When it doesn’t come easy but it comes when you work hard you know your strength
