How would you go about learning about each firm? How does each firm differentiate themselves beyond their websites?

At MCO, we have in-depth profiles of the top consulting firms. We understand the differences because we’ve been there, so all of our clients gain access to the insider information on each firm.

Aside from that, the best way to learn is by talking to people. As you’re doing your networking, you should ask great questions to learn more about the firm.

We generally recommend you bucket those questions into three areas:

(1) How does the actual work you do differ?

(2) How does the staffing model differ, and

(3) How does the culture differ?

Outside of networking, we also recommend attending firm events that are posted on their website to learn more about the firms.
