It is well understood that the ultimate goal of any summer internship is to secure a full-time position. Performing above expectations is a sure-fire way to achieve that goal. However, equally important, is to use your time as an intern to learn more about what a consultant does, what motivates clients to hire and retain consultants, and what the professional opportunities of a career in consulting look like. Ultimately not only does the firm that you are interning for need to want you, but you need to feel that the firm’s mission and company culture is a good fit for you. In this recording, you will hear from former interns of two premier consulting firms on what it takes to maximize your experience as an intern, set the course for your new career in consulting, and help you make important career decisions in the short and medium term.
