ABOUT THIS COMPANY:

Knowledge of streams and currents
Kurt Salmon Associates is a management consulting firm serving the retail, consumer products and health care industries. It was founded (spawned, one might be tempted to say) in Nashville, Tenn., in 1935, as the solo operation of Kurt Salmon, a German immigrant and textile engineer. The company has since grown into a multinational operation spanning 14 offices in Europe, Asia and North America.

*In June 2010, Kurt Salmon Associates announced a partnership with Ineum Consulting. The two will create an independent consulting firm under the name Kurt Salmon, but will retain their respective names and identities until January 2011.

Getting Hired

Tips from the inside

Getting Hired

While the hiring process at KSA is very selective, insiders suggest that straight As and endless hours preparing for case studies won’t necessarily land you the job. That’s because a big chunk of the firm’s recruitment process emphasizes the importance of hiring cultural fits, rather than intelligent wet blankets. So who are the candidates that fit in? “Our consultants hail from a variety of educational, professional and cultural backgrounds,” the firm says, “but all have integrity, drive, passion and a commitment to excellence.” Creativity is held in high esteem, as is the ability to lead professional teams in high-pressure business settings.
