      @matthuang21  6 месяцев назад

      Plenty of PhDs go into consulting, I worked with a few during my time at BCG. Alot of them come from life sciences backgrounds because there's a need for specialized knowledge in healthcare. You usually get hired as an "Advanced Degree" consultant. The job is pretty similar to what a post-MBA consultant will do, except that your casework will likely be a bit more tailored to your field of expertise.

    Great insights Matt. Not many people give the unfiltered advice that you have shared about their experience. I have a query that do you find people with diverse backgrounds in consulting for example people with CFA and/or masters in management? Or are there specific MBA requirement that needs to be met?

    • @matthuang21
      @matthuang21  Год назад

      Hey Shubh! Thanks for the question - I’d say that there are people from all sorts of backgrounds in consulting, though it does skew towards people with business degrees like an MBA for example. That said, an MBA isn’t required (plenty of folks including myself have gotten in without one), and what matters more IMO is your previous work experience and how relevant it is to consulting. A CFA is focused on security analysis, which isn’t core to consulting, so I don’t think it will make that much of a difference. I’ve probably met 1 person with a CFA at BCG in my time here.

    Do you have any tips for lateral hire in this economy or potentially in 2024? Im a Consultant at Deloitte working on due diligence and post deal value creation with MM/LMM PE funds and interested in moving to a T2/MBB strategy house. I don't dabble in too much strategy other than some CDD projects but would like to get some experience with BU/Corporate Strategy or Growth Strategy projects, which just aren't sold as much at Deloitte

    • @matthuang21
      @matthuang21  Год назад

      Thanks for the question! From what I can see it’s not a very good market for lateral hiring right now, less projects being sold and so at least at my firm recruiting has definitely slowed. Lateral hiring tends to be de-prioritized in favor of on-campus recruiting, so it really depends on whether things pick up in 2024. I would just stay in touch with people so that when things pick up again you’ll be ready.

I have a question, I’m applying to Deloitte as a Graduate trainee, and during my research from their website they have strategy consulting as a sub unit in consulting, I want to know if this is still part of the implementation consulting you spoke earlier about or it’s actually a form of strategy consulting like the name suggests

      The Big 4 do work on some strategy projects (hence why you have Deloitte Strategy or EY Parthenon, and PWC Strategy&), but the bulk of their work is in implementation. So to answer your Q, the Deloitte Strategy sub unit probably does work on strategy projects. Hope this helps!

    Hey Matt, is there a path to pivot into consulting from tech? I know MBB and big 4 have their tech wings but I was looking at moving out into a more generalist role. I know its a pay cut to move out of tech and into consulting but I think its a better fit for understanding the big picture of the business side.

    • @matthuang21
      @matthuang21  Год назад +2

      Hey Nachiketh! It's definitely possible to pivot into consulting from tech, though most people will be doing the opposite (leaving consulting for Big Tech). You just need to have a good story explaining why you want to make that switch, and moving to a more generalist role where you'll be able to work with different companies and projects in different industries is a compelling reason. Try to really tie it to your current experience (e.g. if you're a PM in tech, you could say that you've enjoyed building and launching products, analyzing data and customer feedback, etc. and that you've learned a ton, but really want to analyze companies instead) to make it more compelling.
      Tactically speaking I would start by networking with people who have made a similar transition (try to find people on LinkedIn who've moved from tech --> consulting) and get smart of casing so you're not rushing if you start getting interviews. Hope this helps!

    • @Nchinnam

      @@matthuang21 thank you so much for the insight. I just started reaching out other folks on LinkedIn a few days ago. This idea to get out of tech came at the start of the year lol. I did 2 years doing fintech development at a bank and got burned out making features for internal people. I think I've built the technical skills and I need either an MBA or consulting to understand other aspects of business so in 4-5 years I can work on my own start up.

    • @TheLeaf1
      @TheLeaf1 11 месяцев назад +1

      I may be 4 weeks late to this comment, but I made the transition very early in my career (~1 yoe as a dev at a nonprofit) and can maybe provide some insight. Depending on how much experience you have, there's a few ways to go about it.
      If you're brand new like I was, you can pretty easily apply to entry level consulting positions and interview the same as anybody else. I'm in tech consulting, not management consulting, but from what I've seen in case interviews for fresh grads I could've passed them coming out of undergrad all the same.
      As a mid-senior level with 2-8 years experience, I think it would be important to make sure you can demonstrate some degree of leadership or project planning skills. Perhaps transition to a TPM or customer success type role and see if that type of work is for you. Lots of tech consultants are TPMs and it's a very common exit strategy for consultants looking to leave.
      I'm not sure what field of tech you're in, but if you know SQL, Python, and can do some data analytics, Accenture and Deloitte both have strong technical consultant teams and that may be the easiest and fastest way to dip your toes into consulting without a full on switch and an MBA. And while I would never recommend working at a WITCH company like Infosys or Cognizant, you can get some experience at one of them too, though you'll have to be very self driven to wade through all the problems there lol.
      You can also apply to a smaller consultant group or a tech company with a professional services department (like IBM or Oracle) that will have the resources to train you on their tech and deploy you to help clients with their problems. You'll still need to figure out the business/management side of consulting though if you want to jump into that.
      If none of those routes seem appealing, your best bet is probably to get an MBA and apply at a senior / consultant level after graduating, though I think it's probably best to have your company pay for it if this is the route you take.

      For example, did you use Crafting Cases or RocketBlocks or a book? Thanks!

      @matthuang21  6 месяцев назад

      Great question! I used Victor Cheng’s book and read the crafting cases blog. Tried using rocketblocks a bit but didn’t find it super useful for frameworks. I also practiced a ton of “case starts” where you just do the beginning of a case.

    Which consulting firm is best for those who have strong work boundaries? Like i prefer to leave work at the office after 40h and im out. Plus any of the firms who focus on construction industry?

    • @matthuang21
      @matthuang21  9 месяцев назад

      I don't know if there is any reputable consulting firm out there where you can work only 40 hours a week. Because you are in a client advisory role, you will always be at the beck and call of the client - unreasonable demands and timelines do come up, and if they want something done by Monday morning and it's Friday afternoon, you might not be able to log off at 5pm. To answer your second Q, I'm not familiar with any firms that specialize in construction - most larger consulting firms are generalist and work across alot of industries.

    What exactly is your consultant type. Are you talking about Organizational change management consultant. Currently Im working as a Technical writer and got an interview scheduled as Change Management Analyst in Deloitte.
    Is Change management good? Are you talking about the same.. Please help 🙏 me .. its hard to figure out

    • @matthuang21
      @matthuang21  8 месяцев назад

      I work in strategy consulting. Change mgmt sounds more like implementation consulting, which is what alot of Big 4 consulting firms do (e.g., Deloitte). It's a bit different from strategy consulting because somebody has probably already developed the strategy, and change management is facilitating the execution of that strategy or whatever change was recommended.

      Consulting firms take people from many different backgrounds - I know there are def some people who studied CS and ended up on consulting. You just need to prepare for case interviews and network. As long as you’re focused you can do it.

    Boys and girls, take note: study computer science or engineering! These fields give you strong, transferable skills and open doors to exciting, future-proof careers in tech, AI, robotics, and more. Consulting might sound glamorous, but it’s a burnout-heavy path with limited growth unless you love endless presentations and pleasing clients. Build skills that matter-choose tech or engineering!

      Yes - but your best chances are going to be for more specialized roles (vs traditional consulting) like BCG X or McK Quantum Black type roles which are more technical in nature.

    Hey Matt, loved your video. When I heard you say the sentence about being uncertain about your career, that hit me because that’s how I feel right now. I am currently a civil engineer, I graduated 2 years ago and have a masters degree in it. I wanted to ask you, since I have no experience in the industry, do you know how I could go forward in consulting? Do I do a MBA? Can I do an MSc, or can I straight away apply to a consulting company? I would love to hear your advice on this, thank you! You have a new subscriber 😊
