Columbia Business School’s Management Consulting Association

Columbia Business School’s Management Consulting Association is a large, active organization that aims to educate students about the consulting industry through its programs and activities.

Mentoring Programs

The club promotes management consulting field through different ways. It facilitates various workshops where members understand a consultant’s roles and responsibilities, and enhance their skills and abilities for the desired position. It also organizes resume reviews and mock interviews for the first year students. It also hosts panel discussions, brown-bag events and case competitions in partnership with top tier consulting firms such as Bain and Booz.

The Resume Book

The Resume Book is a compilation of resumes of all club members. It’s usually used by consulting recruiters for their manpower needs. They go over it if they want to invite students for presentations or if they’re scouting for someone with a specific technical expertise. This implies that members may be offered career opportunities without having to go through the long, exhausting, recruiting process.

The Case Book

This is another publication that can be accessed by club members. The book explains the consulting industry, the types of case problems and some guidelines to nail down the questions. Sample cases are then described, analyzed and resolved in a step-by-step manner. Possible case study frameworks are also introduced to structure the answer properly.
