Hello all,
I ' am an undergraduate student at a large state university in the southeast. I would like to eventually work for a management consulting firm but i don't know how to go about doing that. I would like to know what I have to do to eventually get hired at a management consultancy and how to eventually move up in the firm.
The types of things i' am looking for are:
-what are the credentials that management consulting firms value the most in new applicants- GPA, extracurriculars, anything just lay it on me
-would an MS in applied economics improve my chances of gaining a job as an analyst or economist at a consulting firm?
Also, I have heard in the past that the natural progression for moving up in a management consulting firm is to start as an analyst, work up through the analyst ranks and eventually get promoted as an actual management consultant and work as part of a team. I' ve also heard that the firms will finance an mba for their new promotee once.
Is anything ive said true?
thanks
