Written by . Posted in Consulting Industry

Boston Consulting Group

On March 24, 2011, The Boston Consulting Group (BCG) announced that 2 new offices have opened in Tel Aviv, Israel and Perth, Australia, making its total number of offices 71. Read more about this news.

Additional Office in Israel

There are BCG offices in 41 countries around the world. It is planning for the 72nd world office in Rio de Janeiro, which is likely to open later this year.

According to its 2010 financial report, it has a double-digit growth of 12 percent at constant exchange rates and stellar revenue of $3.05 billion. BCG made proactive actions in increasing its employees by eight percent despite the gloomy global economy climate, making the total number of staff 4800. According to Hans-Paul Burkner, president and CEO of BCG, the reason behind large-scale recruitment is that “BCG’s strong growth and our growing global footprint are a real tribute to the talent of our people. Even in these volatile times, our people have an outstanding ability to work together with our clients to generate great value, we feel that now is a good time to be expanding so that we can better serve existing clients and more easily reach new ones.”

BCG Offices in Middle East

The opening of Tel Aviv office signifies BCG ambition for Middle East market. The Tel Aviv office establishes the firm’s presence in Israel. It is the third office in the Middle East, the other two being Abu Dhabi office which opened in 2007 and so did Dubai office. When asked why open an office in Israel, Hans-Paul Burkner said that “Tel Aviv is one of the world’s leading innovation hot spots, ranking second behind the U.S. in the number of companies listed on Nasdaq. It is a critical location for serving businesses throughout the Middle East.”

New Office in Australia

Perth is where the 4th office in Australia is located, further expanding the company’s consulting network in Oceania. The earliest BCG offices in Australia were opened in Sydney and Melbourne back in 1990, followed by Canberra in 2009. According to Burkner, Perth broadens and deepens the firm’s presence in Australia, allowing it to work more directly with the important business and government communities there.

Now BCG is looking forward to a third office in South American city Rio de Janeiro, which they also consider as an important strategic stance in the south sphere for new opportunities and impacts.

How To Ace Consulting Firms’ Numerical Reasoning Tests

Written by . Posted in Tests

Numerical Reasoning Tests

Behavioral interview questions and case study interviews allow top management consulting firms insight into how the candidate functions when presented with different problems. However, to have a solid quantifiable metric, some consulting firms do ask the candidates to take numerical reasoning tests. Read on…

What Are Numerical Reasoning Tests?

There are only three major suppliers of numerical reasoning tests, and they all follow the same general format. Over roughly half an hour, management consulting candidates are asked to make sense of graphs and tables similar to those found in publications like Bloomberg and the Wall Street Journal. There are usually 30 or so questions, meaning that the time crunch can feel intense for those without prior practice. While the most advanced concepts can include percentages and currency conversion, the most extensive math required are the four basic operations: addition, subtraction, multiplication and division.

How Are Results Used By Management Consulting Firms?

No management consulting firm is going to dismiss your candidate profile out of hand because of a potentially weak numerical reasoning exam score. On the other hand, if you are a good or nearly strong candidate, it can sink you against someone who shines on a more even basis among the other assessments or the interviews. It, like the GRE and SAT in United States higher education, is used as another barometer of ability to use as a tie-breaker for candidates who seem to be on the cusp. It’s critical to get a good score on it, not because of this issue, but simply because you can prepare for it very easily.

You Can Succeed With Some Practice

So, you don’t think math is the greatest thing in the world, and graphs and charts may leave you a bit dizzy? First, get used to reading lots of articles with charts, graphs and infographics. Rather than just glancing over them, teach yourself to answer questions that are not necessarily there. For example, doing the mental math to figure out how many people are represented by a slice of a pie chart is one way to begin making those mental connections.

The other is the obvious one: practice tests. Since most exams used by top management consulting firms are designed to only offer enough time for just one or two percent to answer each question correctly. Your natural math ability may limit you to an extent, but practice will take away some of the nerves that keep you from reaching your first potential.

This practice is also important if the firm you are applying to does not use numerical reasoning tests. You will be able to use these skills quite well in case study interviews, where math, chart reading and quick analysis skills are important.

  • SHL – global provider of ability assessment tools with some great practice test

Consulting Firm Profile: Boston Consulting Group

Written by . Posted in Consulting Industry

Consulting Firms

Boston Consulting Group is the final member of the big four management consulting firms, and while it is not based in New York City like the others, it does retain a prestige and alumni network that is very strong. In fact, one of the benefits of working at BCG is the strong collegial atmosphere. Read more…

An Entry-Level Career at BCG

In that vein, there is a three-week introductory core curriculum to ensure that entry-level associates all begin on the same page. Unlike Bain, McKinsey and others, BCG continues opportunities for advanced training in various aspects of strategic consulting. Former associates note that there are a number of opportunities for personal growth that they might not have found at the other major firms.

That same atmosphere of learning means that BCG employees may come off as somewhat elitist; the firm tends to take the lead in ensuring that management consultants need only focus on improving processes for clients, rather than focus on more mundane aspects of the practice. Higher level thinking is critical to maintain an edge, but in return, Boston Consulting Group offers extremely competitive compensation and benefits packages.

Boston Consulting Group History

There’s a reason that higher level thinking is critical. Founder Bruce Henderson pushed early BCG management consultants to develop new methodologies, and the matrices used to help explain these solutions to clients are well-known throughout the industry. One of the most critical concepts was developed early, before 1970, and is known as the experience curve, which states that a company’s knowledge and capability of producing something as they are able to create more of it. The firm also has made a concerted effort to chase subject matter experts to enhance its radical decision-making. It gained more than 1,000 consultants between 2006 and 2010 alone.

Practice Areas and Compensation

In terms of services covered, there is perhaps a bit more emphasis on branding and marketing than at, say, Booz, as well as a stronger emphasis on strategic goals regarding effective globalization of different wings of a client firm. However, the size of the firm enables it to provide services in corporate finance, information technology and leadership development as well. There are also a heavy concentration of offices throughout much of Western Europe, but especially Asia that allow for management consultants at Boston Consulting Group to embark on a wide variety of cases on behalf of clients.

Boston Consulting Group may not have the absolute best name recognition in the industry, with McKinsey and Bain still the top names, but they do offer something different from the other firms. For one, the signing bonus and compensation options are among the best in the industry. That’s a key factor considering that management consultants are salaried employees, and regularly work 60 hours or more per week. At the same time, the collegial atmosphere ensures that networking possibilities remain strong for BCG alums who decide to move on after a few years.

Consulting Firm Profile: McKinsey & Company

Written by . Posted in Consulting Industry

Consulting Firm Profile

McKinsey & Company is one of the four top-tier management consulting firms. It covers a number of the same industry sectors as competitors like Boston Consulting Group (BCG), Bain and Booz. McKinsey argues that it tries to do things differently. It’s a belief that early-career management consultants say is very true. Read more…

McKinsey associates pride themselves on finding the best possible solutions for a client’s concern, chiefly focusing on cost and supply chain management, but also delving into marketing and revenue management as it pertains to the overall company goals. Current and former associates and business analysts note that ideas are the principal currency at the firm. They are also at other firms, clearly, but at McKinsey, a good theoretical understanding of global management practices is critical for working well among one’s peers.

Background of McKinsey & Company

McKinsey and Company pioneered a lot of things thanks to starting out in the Chicago area in the 1930s and taking advantage of the guiding hand of Martin Bower. The location led to a strong early emphasis on management consultants taking on work for the Big Three automakers in Detroit, as well as other manufacturing firms in the second tier of suppliers. But the other, more critical development, was Bower’s emphasis on hiring entry-level candidates fresh out of business school, a practice that has now become prominent at other firms but still provides hope for candidates fresh out of school looking to break into management consulting.

Salary and Advancement

Starting pay is generally slightly above the industry standard, although some McKinsey & Co. management consultants note that the pay is not quite as strong when one considers the 60+-hour workweeks involved. Advancement offers strong prospects, although as with other firms, McKinsey associates and engagement managers generally work in more client-facing roles and in creating business development opportunities for the partners.

However, while associates generally design and deploy recommendations at McKinsey for their many clients in the Fortune 1000 (Nearly two-thirds of that group, in fact), some of the associates note that other than explaining the conclusions to C-level executives, much of the work that they do is very similar to what they would be doing if they were one rung below. It seems that much of the upward growth in the firm may be looked at as horizontal in terms of the expansion of the job descriptions there. Others note that more opportunities may be available when one looks outward, rather than upward.

Moving on from McKinsey & Company

On the other hand, McKinsey and Co. recognizes that many of its younger business analysts will move on to other roles with different companies and perhaps specialize more with years of experience. That understanding of the management consulting world, along with the emphasis on training clients to take on solutions themselves, may make it the perfect fit for some entry-level management consultant aspirants.

Facts about McKinsey & Company

  • Founded: 1926
  • Offices: 95

Ace a Consulting Verbal Reasoning Test

Written by . Posted in Tests

Verbal Reasoning Test

If you are great at taking tests, you may not feel too concerned about the verbal reasoning assessment common to some management consulting firms. However, even great test takers may find that they need to figure out new strategies. Read more about verbal reasoning tests in consulting…

First, for American visitors to ConsultingFact.com, the questions do not resemble those of the SAT, ACT or even GMAT. Business management majors who have seen the analytical sections of the law school application test (LSAT), may understand better. For others, it is more like a hybrid of the reading comprehension of lower-level standardized tests combined with the time crunch of a Wonderlic exam, tests that require responses to 50 questions in just 12 minutes.

Breaking Down The Verbal Reasoning Exam

There are generally a few relatively short passages densely filled with data. Roughly three to four questions follow each reading, with the options of selecting whether a given statement is true, false or unable to be verified (insufficient information) given the data offered in the passage.

Everyone tests differently, but there are a few strategies that may help some work more quickly through the questions, allowing more time to analyze the information provided. They include the following two:

1) Choosing not to read the passage first. This can be difficult to do, but instead of reading the passage, allow your eyes to travel over the passage and note where numbers, percentages and statistically rare words are. These can include medical conditions, legal terminology and others. Then, using the vague mental map, you’ve prepared, read the question and follow the map to where the information is likely located.

2) Skim and paraphrase. Quickly glean the main point of the passage and build a structure of what the succeeding sentences provide (counterpoints, proofs, opposing viewpoints). When you read each question, immediately re-phrase it into a statement that you would make, and then set it against the mental outline you made of the passage.

Comfort Is Critical On Test Day

There are other options, and using a library to find LSAT or other test prep books may also aid you. Keep in mind that the key to being successful on the verbal reasoning exam is becoming comfortable. It does not matter which strategy you use, or even if you use the brute force method of reading the passage each time you have a question. The longer you take, the less time you have to analyze, true, but the biggest factor is comfort. That means picking a strategy that you can call upon no matter how stressed you are the day of the tests.

We’ll continue to cover other exams that are common parts of management consulting application processes. But for now, take a deep breath and relax. That should probably have been tip number one.

Consulting Firm Profile: Bain & Company

Written by . Posted in Consulting Industry

Bain

Bain & Company is a management consulting firm that started late, but began operations with a focus on one goal: demonstrable objectives for clients to achieve in order to make clear gains in either revenue or cost cutting. The culture is fast-paced and the principals eschew the idea that strategy is more important than implementation. Read more…

Life at Bain

That means that those with strong conceptual thinking will do just fine, according to younger associates, but they will need to ensure that they can find concrete direction with their analysis. Others have noted that the best applicant, whether entry-level or in the middle of one’s career, will find that humility is a career attribute of all management consultant applicants that are successful at Bain.

And in fact, applicants should be expected to take the verbal reasoning and case study sections of an interview seriously, with the ability to translate their analysis to specific actionable items, even at the early stages of the development of a strategic change. These may apply to any one of the Bain & Company specialties, including the normal management and growth and change strategies in addition to information technology and supply chain improvements.

Areas of Focus

Like competing management consultant firms Boston Consulting Group, McKinsey and Booz, Bain & Company offers services in each of their specialties to a number of different industry sectors. Among the many covered by the company are the automotive, defense, media, retail and healthcare sectors. Since the culture focuses on quick and demonstrable results, prospective management consultants can expect frequent travel to be on-site at client locations.

Bain & Company Background

Bain & Company was founded by Boston Consulting Group alumni like Bill Bain and other former management consultants who figured that new strategies and ideas would help drive business clients forward. While the company no longer focuses on a single client per sector, management consultants at Bain still keep in mind the old selling points from the 1970s: the ability to increase stock prices and raise revenue. A crisis in the early 1990s led to significant restructuring that led to more buy-in at the general partner level and also affords more flexibility during financial downturns.

Moving On and Moving Away

Those who choose to stay with Bain & Company will also find that there are demonstrable differences between positions, and growth will mean taking on additional responsibilities. Keep in mind that many at Bain note that the management consultants will be cross-trained in a number of industries, and while that leads to greater versatility, it can come at the expense of developing subject matter expertise. Some junior-level employees also note that the gap between the first and second levels can be somewhat high.

However, Bain directors understand, just like other management consulting firms, that some analysts and consultants will choose to move on to other firms with their varied expertise and skill set. In that case, Bain can offer the prestige that few other firms can match. In fact, in 2009 and 2010, the firm had the best name recognition according to several external reviews. That can open doors even in industries where one doesn’t have much experience while at Bain.

Consulting Firm Profile: Booz & Company

Written by . Posted in Consulting Industry

Consulting Firm Profile

Booz & Company may have spun off it’s government consultants, but it still has a team-centric philosophy that means that new hires are likely to find themselves solving different problems, but all in one industry. Historically, the company focused on the Great Lakes region of the United States, including the automotive industry.

Since then, they have branched out to nearly as many sectors as a top-10 firm could seek to cover, again outside of the public sector to the extent they once did. While they clearly have a goal to serve as many industries as their teams have expertise to cover, their biggest claim to fame is to help firms deal with “discontinuities,” as Booz & Co. describes it.

These include moving oil companies into renewable energy projects or dealing with aspects of regulation and deregulation that can call for wholesale organizational changes. The firm and its management consultants argue that the industry specific knowledge they provide helps companies by quickly applying best practices as they have already been used in other companies and developing new ones when needed.

The pace is fast for entry-level and even mid-career management consultants. Clients’ projects are generally only assigned for six months so that there is no possibility for stagnation. Anonymous employees argue that the rapid movement also helps promote rapid promotion for the right candidates.

At the same time, it also doesn’t mean that there are very many times to take a breather or ask for help in understanding new or difficult strategies. The reliance on an industry-centric strategy in building teams also develops expertise, but means that employee reductions can match the growth and decline of their areas of coverage.

Still, the number of offices in far flung locations makes the prospect of travel possible, especially in sectors like pharmaceuticals with a global footprint. Those who join teams that cover a larger footprint in terms of regions can expect a concomitant increase in the amount of time that they travel.

Keep in mind that while there are industry-specific teams, there are also subject matter experts on the senior staff in the following functional areas: information technology, organization and strategic leadership, as well as operations management.

Many employees argue that Booz & Company offers a great environment to get started, thanks to the intelligence of co-workers and the global footprint. The name brand value doesn’t hurt either. Where things start to get a little contentious is the amount of travel, and the decision of the company to remove it’s government consulting teams which some argue diluted the brand.

Founded: 1914

Top 10 Management Consulting Jargon Terms

Written by . Posted in Consulting Industry

Consulting Jargon Terms

Do you speak the management consulting world’s language? You would not be far removed from calling it a separate dialect of English, considering it has its own vocabulary and changes the use of verbs and nouns in some cases. Read more about this special language…

Don’t fret, though. The words can make some sense if you know where they come from, and we’ve made a list of 10 of our favorites. You can also find out some more specific terms by using thesis help online:

Bandwidth

You have a certain amount of energy, of skills and time that you can bring to bear on a project. Bandwidth is an all-encompassing term that combines each aspect and sounds more professional than, “I don’t have the time nor the energy to do this.

Best Practices

Whether you’re talking about a business sector, your client company or in general, best practices are the methods and means that have the most benefit. However, be careful in using absolutes if you plan on trying a new method: it may become a best practice, but if you call it one it’s not true.

Close the Loop

In meetings, closing the loop means finishing an item on the agenda or a topic of discussion with everyone in agreement. It can also be used to describe an item still to be done.

Core Competencies

If you had 15 seconds to describe a company’s best attributes, you would come up with its core competencies. Many consultants assigned to struggling firms recommend focusing time and resources on these areas.

Leverage

Synonymous with use, leverage is a verb that may be frequently included in reports to give a sense of strength or careful thinking to the reassignment of resources. Should generally be added to documents when a management consultant feels that the task is BEST completed using the proposed method.

Ping

Taken from the computer and networking world, to ping someone means to contact them on a matter. Generally it is done with email, but the term can be used no matter the media.

Pushback

Pushback is any real or anticipated issues that might be raised by the executives at a client company concerning a consultant’s analysis or proposed solution.

Scope Creep

A management consultant is brought in to find out why a company’s new marketing strategy is affecting workplace productivity. Scope creep sets in when they find out that they’re also responsible for assisting on writing policies and other tasks not initially included in the project

Takeaway

The takeaway is the set of key points that the audience should understand by the end of a presentation or meeting. Management consultants who don’t ensure their clients get the “takeaway” may not be successful.

Wetware

The human element. It may refer to the minds of an organization, the human resources available to a company in general, or simply a consultant’s mind and thought process. Can be difficult to figure out which without context.
