I read Andrew Gutman's "How to be an Investment Banker", and it was extremely helpful for me. Having finished the 440-pages book, I had no question in mind about the IB career or job functions. I wonder if there's a similar book concerning Management Consulting.

Hi,

Try with the following ones:

- Million Dollar Consulting, by Alan Weiss.

- Getting Started in Consulting, by Alan Weiss.

- The McKinsey Mind, by Ethan Rasiel.

- The McKinsey Way, by Ethan Rasiel.

- 90 Days to Sucess in Consulting, by William McKnight.

You might also have a look at other "classics" like The Pyramid Principle or Case Interview Secrets.

Hope it helps.

Best,

Antonello

Hello!

I would say there are two big blocks here:

  • Books to get you ready for the interviews: the classics: Victor Cheng´s, Pyramid Principle, and the consulting prep books from Ivy League
  • Books to learn about consulting as an industry: see below posts from other coaches

Hope it helps!

Cheers,

Clara
