OVERVIEW
WetFeet Insider Guide – 25 Top Consulting Firms
The Industry

“Consulting is a high-paid, high-profile field that offers those who’ve been permitted entrance into the sanctum not
only the opportunity to assume a large degree of responsibility right out of school, achieve rapid advancement, and
obtain a sterling credential for their resume, but also the promise for the nimble-minded to quickly learn a great deal
about the business world.” Consultants are hired advisors to corporations. “In solving a problem for a client, a
consultant first frames the problem; then analyzes data from various sources, including client databases, market data,
anecdotal accounts from interviews, surveys, and other sources; and finally, develops an actionable solution from the
data. Success as a consultant consists of not only solving problems, but also selling those solutions to the client.”

The Bottom Line

Consulting is a great long term career for a few people. Not everyone is cut out to be a consultant. Since consulting
is a service oriented business, it requires immense people skills and hard work.
