“What is management consulting about?” An introduction to the life of a management consultant
Curious about management consulting, but not sure what it really is? On Monday

Places are limited so we invite you to submit your CV to Mary Katergaris at katergaris.mary@bcg.com by no later than Thursday 11 August. Successful submissions will be notified by email.
