Is there a piece of work at your consultancy just waiting for the right person to do it?

BLT are partnering with London Business School to link MBA students to consulting project opportunities with consulting firms over Summer 2009. Summer Consulting Projects offer management consultancies the opportunity to benefit from London Business School’s pool of global business talent.

The benefits to participating firms are:

• Observe and assess a student within consultancy context and mutually decide if there is a longer term employment fit.
• Gain an outsider’s perspective on business issues/challenges and benefit from some of the latest thinking and practice.
• Assist a future consulting leader’s personal development by enabling them to put their business school learning to work on a real-life consulting project.

The Summer Consulting Project position can simulate the experience of a new consultant and can include field interviews, data analysis, solution brainstorming, presentation crafting and delivery. Students may work directly with consultancy teams and clients to solve problems and create change.

Eighteen consulting firms and 58 students participated in the 2008 Summer Consulting project programme. This resulted in 34 permanent job offers being made.
