Next let's take a look at the first chapter of the book. The task of consulting is mentioned in the preface. These tasks are for the customer to raise a question, consult and start to collect, analyze, recommend the problem, and then generate a report to the customer.
How can we assess a qualified or potential consultant? In addition to the prestigious schools, beautiful GPA, and grand prizes, you also need to have excellent business analysis capabilities. How can we test your project analysis capabilities? This requires case interviews. To win the case interview, you need to enter the role! To make yourself feel like a gifted actor. Of course you need to keep practicing and then perform on the stage. If the exercise level is high, the performance goes further. So I want to be the best actress!
