Hi guys,
I think this question has been asked a million times but anyway here I go. I just got an offer to start at BCG in Nairobi as a business analyst in a couple weeks. I have a consulting background as I currently work for a smaller pan-African management consulting so its not as if I will be starting from scratch. However I am a bit anxious as I get ready to switch firms - I am very much excited for the most part though! Couple questions:
- How do I make sure I am able to become an excellent consultant at BCG? Especially in how do I make sure I am on “Track 1” or at the very least “track 2”?
- How do I make sure I am an excellent cultural fit for the firm? I know this is very important bc I know a couple guys who were good at doing their work but not a great culture fit, and were counselled out.
This is especially in terms of how to navigate the “up or out" culture, as I will only have a year (less actually) to prove I am ready for the next role. Thanks for all the help in advance
