Simon-Kucher & Partners has been hiring doctoral candidates for 30+ years and the firm has another opportunity for advanced degrees to make the leap to consulting through the firm's Soar with Simon-Kucher Workshop.
In this episode, we had the pleasure of chatting with Simon-Kucher Senior Director Stephane Ricoult about the workshop. The CliffsNotes version:

• Soar is an opportunity for doctoral students (i.e., PhD, PharmD, DVM) to learn more about careers in life science consulting and Simon-Kucher.
• Open to doctoral students able to start full-time in 2024 or 2025.
• Takes place virtually May 10th & 11th - application deadline is April 2, 2023.

If you are accepted to Soar, you'll be fast-tracked to a final round interview for a full-time role, which is why Management Consulted recommends considering an application. Before you do so, make sure your resume and cover letter are top-notch and you are prepped for the case interview.

The application deadline for the Soar with Simon-Kucher Workshop is April 2, 2023. Apply today.

Sophomore summer consulting internships are a great way for sophomores interested in consulting to get their foot in the door at their dream firm.
While summer internships for consulting are traditionally for juniors, several leading firms hold sophomore programs - and some are even open to freshmen! Applications typically open in late fall or winter, but each firm has different deadlines.

These programs are an amazing opportunity to connect with a leading consulting firm (i.e., McKinsey, Bain, BCG) and jump on the inside track to a full-time role later on.

In this episode, Jenny Rae breaks down:

• Why firms offer sophomore summer internships
• Who is eligible?
• What you do in a sophomore internship
• Examples of programs
• Tips for landing an offer
