Want a HIGH PAYING “Big 4” Job – Know These Truths First
TRS Clips
Consultancy firms, or consulting firms, work for large businesses such as Reliance, The Table, or Airtel.
Consultants provide an outside perspective to these companies. While the companies know their
business well, sometimes an outside perspective can help them rethink their fundamentals. That’s why
they hire expensive firms like McKinsey, Bain, BCG, and PWC. One of my closest friends, Nira Chutness,
worked at a consulting firm and once told me that it’s great and you get to learn an incredible amount. A
Bain consultant is a consultant who validates what their clients have already pitched, meaning they
study what the clients think is the right way to do business and then add layers on to that. The world of
consultants is highly competitive, and curiosity and ambition are key traits for successful consultants.
High-impact companies are looking for candidates with these traits for high-impact roles. For example,
Microsoft recently hired product managers, and the way they interviewed candidates was by giving
them a problem and seeing how they think. Did they structure their thinking? Did they ask questions for
more data? These are the types of structured thinking that are taught in MBA programs.
If you have a clear goal and a strong desire to achieve it, the challenges you face will resolve themselves.
This is the essence of Planet Tech. In the agency business, speed is key. Can you provide both fast and
high-quality results? While everyone can deliver quality work, can you do it faster than the rest,
especially in the field of edtech?
