This event aims to inspire individuals who've recently obtained or are studying towards a doctoral degree and are interested in transitioning to the world of strategy consulting.
As PhD holders have spent many years developing analytical skills by solving complex problems, the field of consulting is a great career choice for individuals interested in applying those skills in a fast-paced environment.
This event will be a great opportunity to learn more about what being a strategy consultant entails, how to make the leap from academia to the world of business, how to prepare for your interviews, and to hear about the experiences of people who have made this transition.
The event will offer
- insight into strategy consulting and what the Strategy& Deals and Corporate teams do
