How do I break into the consulting world?
I am a 23 year old from the United States finishing my Masters degree in International Business Management in France at Grenoble Ecole de Management.

I tried searching for mentorship programs at some of the top consulting firms, but from what I have seen, they are only offering these programs to people with diverse backgrounds, which I do not have. Any tips for improving my resume or any free online courses that you may know of would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance!
