Steps
1
Create a list of the firms you'd like to apply for.
The Vault Guide is a great resource for a list of firms by popular
opinion. Google search is another great way to discover consulting firms
in your area of expertise or geography-
2Prepare your resume/CV! Make sure it is one page or less, 12 point font, with at least 0.5" margins. Talk to your most important work accomplishments, your hard skills, your educational background, and your personal hobbies.
-
3Network, network, network. Leverage your personal and professional networks to meet people at your firms of interest. Find emails online and send your resume in. However, a personal contact typically works best.
-
4Get ready for interviews and case studies. Study for them online - most of the top firms have free case studies with suggested answers. Study yourself in front of a mirror, tape yourself through a webcam and practice interviewing with friends as well
-
5Land offers and negotiate your salary! This is obviously the fun part, but if you do well, it can also be a big step between being 100% happy and feeling you got shortchanged.
