Additional information

I´m not that experienced yet but really curious about consulting and I'm considering to apply for an internship. Do I also have a chance if I haven't that much work experience? Thank you!

Hi Magdalena, I hope you are doing well :) Please feel free to apply for an internship, as the applicants CV will always be "evaluated" with a holistic view!

Thank you so much! And for a consulting internship, are there any specific topics/ knowledge I should prepare in case for an interview?

In general, you should prepare well for the cases that cover different topics (e.g., performance improvement, market entry, etc.). Yet, prior industry knowledge is not required :) Does this answers your question?

Yes! Thank you very much! Are there specific tools or platforms you would recommend to learn and practice?

Indeed, we recommend case study books (e.g., from Squeker) as well as Preplounge as a platform to connect with other consultancy-interested students in order to practice in a more "realistic" set-up :)

Ich nehme an auch auf deutsch schreiben zu können, oder?:) ich wollte noch fragen, wie der Bewerbungsprozess für ein Consulting Praktikum aufgebaut ist und ob für die Praktika zum Beispiel für Marketing wieder andere Abläufe gelten?

Hi Magdalena, der Prozess unterscheidet sich in der Tat geringfügig. In der Regel führst du für ein Praktikum beispielsweise im Marketing auch ein persönlichkeitsbasiertes Interview und ein Fachinterview. Die inhaltlichen Fragen unterscheiden sich natürlich entsprechend dem Fachbereich. Hilft dir das?
