What have you learned from the BCG Strategy Consulting Virtual Experience Program?
Through the BCG Strategy Consulting Virtual Experience Program, I developed a business strategy for a telecommunications operator who had declining profits for several years. This experience allowed me to solve real client issues and find a solution to drive profitability.
How do you think the Virtual Work Experience Program prepares you for your first job after graduation?
As a sophomore in college, it is hard to gain relevant consulting experience. Through InsideSherpa, I have been able to gain exposure into the consulting field which has fueled my interest even more. It allows me to have something to discuss during an interview and how it has prepared me for a consulting role.
Would you recommend InsideSherpa to other students and why?
I would recommend the InsideSherpa platform to anyone interested in gaining insights into working at a specific firm. As well as anyone seeking a free online, innovative platform to gain experience to put on their resume or add to their LinkedIn. This platform includes internships from companies such as KPMG, Deloitte, and Citibank and many more. InsideSherpa has been an invaluable resource for me to keep busy and continue to learn outside of the classroom during this time.
