I'll tell you something. Here in my school's undergrad business program, you would think that consulting was the holy grail. They talk about it as if they're already consultants, debating the merits of firms and expressing joy/dismay over the lifestyle. It almost seems like blind devotion to something they probably know very little about. Do anyone else think this? Nothing would make me happier (well, some things), than to be able to say to them, "Look you cocky know-it-alls, this is what consulting's really like:______________________" I need you fill in the blank. And please don't throw out the usual "lotsa travel, lotsa hard work."-type stuff. Work up any frustration you have and spit it at me. I'm dying to know. |

well, lotsa travel, lotsa hard work. and it's great fun and pays well.
why would you assume they DON'T know what consulting's really like? they're all reading Vault, aren't they?
