    Management consulting involves solving high-level problems for CEOs and executives through strong problem solving and communication skills. Consultants typically work at partnerships and follow a career path from analyst to partner. People enter consulting for both conventional reasons like personal growth, learning across sectors, and working with intelligent colleagues, as well as unconventional reasons like tangible impact and good career exits. Consulting firms look for spikes in candidates' resumes from campus activities and strong problem solving demonstrated through structured case and fit interviews. Preparing for interviews involves optimizing resumes with mentor help and practicing case interviews with formal or informal mentors.
