This course is for any student who wants to gain a better understanding of the consulting industry as a whole. We will be covering the basics of what a consulting job entails, industry deep-dives, case and behavioral preparation for consulting-specific interviews, resume workshops, technical skill training, and more. There will also be two expert panels during the semester, one consisting of distinguished Berkeley alumni at various consulting firms, and a second consisting of Berkeley seniors who are going into consulting after graduation. These panels will give students the change to network and interact with the panelists and learn more about the various paths to a job in consulting. The method of instruction will be a mix of lectures, discussions, and partner/group work.

In-person attendance is mandatory for this class, and class will be Tuesdays 6-8PM.

This class requires an application to enroll, as historically more students have been interested in this class than the number spots we have available. We will be hosting a course infosession via Zoom on Tuesday, January 31 from 6-7PM PST where we will provide an overview of the course and the syllabus, as well as answer any questions. The application will be due 11:59 PM PST on Feb 1, and we will be sending out enrollment codes on February 2, and the first class session will be on February 7.
