Can Europeans analyze my German friend's situation
Anyone from Europe, please let me know if my German buddy has a shot at a consulting position with a known brand (Big 4, McK, Boston, Bain, etc)
Age: 26 University of Heidelberg
Political Science Degree (Apparently it's a B.A. + M.A) Economics Degree (B.A. + M.A)
Distinction Average (Similar to A in the USA)
Political Internships X 2 or 3, for various parties, local and national elections (Policy Developement, etc.)
University Scholar, Nearly got the Fulbright Scholarship, Published Author
Speaks English and German fluently
Just to note, it's VERY uncommon in Germany to do 2 separate degrees, it should take like 9 years but he's done it in 6.
Yes of course. I know a German with very similar stats who is off to McKinsey next year. He should apply for London offices, they'd love him.
it should be quite easy to get a job in consulting with his background.
Don't even try to complain about my grammar and spelling mistakes!
I agree, good shot and should get the 1st interview after which it's up to him.
He'll be up against other germans from more prestigious unis, who speak a 3rd language and have more than one internship at BB M/B/B, but the 2 degrees and politics experience makes him kind of a unique candidate.
It's not uncommon for Germans to start at McK after graduation at 29.
