How do I break out in management consulting?
Whenever I try to find information about consulting online, it's usually in reference to tax/audit consulting specifically, which isn't what I'm hoping to do. Instead, I want to do management consulting. While I have plenty of experiences in leadership outside of the working world, I've rarely had an opportunity to manage others in my career so far. Do I need a few years of management experience coming out to school to really be a viable consultant? Or would potential internship experience and my education be enough for me to start at an entry-level at a consulting firm?
How do I create professional relationships with alumni from my school?
I am a Senior at a finance school in NYC, finishing up my BBA in Economics and have a job in an Education company focused on Mergers and Acquisitions and some Operations as a part time. I am planning to work towards a MBA in 5 or so more years after I get more experience under me, for a end goal of working in Financial Consulting at MBB. I know the importance of networking and expanding my professional relationships and have done a good job doing so at work, however I am struggling to leverage my school ties to professionals in the field that I have never met. What advice do you have for me in terms of leveraging past alumni connections and how do I approach creating and maintaining a meaningful professional relationship with them
How can I break into the sports management agency field without prior internship experience Most entry-level positions and networking opportunities seem to require it, and I'm struggling to secure one. What are some alternative strategies or less conventional paths I can take to demonstrate my skills and passion and get my foot in the door? Any advice on building connections and gaining relevant experience outside of traditional internships would be greatly appreciated.?
I'm a senior at Baruch College studying Operations Management and Consulting. I took an antitrust law class covering the NCAA and NIL really sparked my interest in the legal and business side of sports, particularly athlete representation. My ultimate career goal is to help both professional and amateur athletes achieve their goals on the field while also setting them up for long-term success off the field. I'm drawn to the idea of combining my business acumen with a passion for sports to make a real difference in athletes' lives.

Former consultants - If you made the jump to industry after working in consulting, how did that work for you?
I am very excited to know that I'll be working as a strategy consultant soon after graduation! However, I am considering 'making the jump' to industry later on in life to work at a more specific company that aligns with the changes I'd like to see in the world. (My dream would be to work for a company focused on renewable energy, or plant based food systems!) For those that were able to make the transition from consulting to industry, how did that happen for you? Was that a goal for you, or did it occur naturally? How did your day to day differ? Do you ever think about going back to consulting? Thanks so much for your time <3 #Spring24
