Video answer by the consultancy

Hello, and thank you for your question!

The job as a consultant is incredibly dynamic and a constant challenge - no two days are the same. We constantly tackle critical challenges for our clients, often with top management involvement and significant financial stakes. This makes our work challenging every day, as the solutions we provide are never off-the-shelf, but always tailored to the client's unique needs.

One of the most important aspects of consulting is the personal growth you experience with each project. In the beginning, the fast pace and complexity can feel overwhelming - activities like presenting at a Steering Committee can stress you a lot. However, with the ongoing support of your project team and the Kearney Originals, you steadily build your skills. Over time, challenges that once seemed difficult become manageable, and you gain confidence with each success.
