Advice to Jobseekers
5+ years work experience a pre requisite before applying for
position in an English Management Consultancy - (in England,
admission to an MBA course requires 7/10 years work experience)
2004 Consultancy market in UK/Europe has been dominated by
the "public" sector for the past 6 years. This work is running
down now & the private sector remains pretty dormant.
Accordingly, there has/is little demand for the numbers of
recruits seen in the late '80s early '90s
