Consult Request: Fill & Download for Free

Believe me, this happens more often than you can imagine. A lot of clients reach out to consultants requesting them to arrange for an internship for their child or a close relative in MBB firms.However, my standard response to all such requests remains the same. The top consulting firms hire interns only through the summer internship program at the top MBA colleges. They do not hire interns outside of the summer internship program.However, they do have some openings every once in a while for applicants on a contractual basis. I ask the client to send me the CV of their child, and tell them I would think about it. If I find the CV meeting the required benchmark for an applicant, I would consider referring the candidate for an interview. If the candidate does not meet the benchmark, I would not forward the CV.It would be worthwhile to note that the criteria or quality of the candidate has to meet the pre-requisites for me to refer someone. No consulting firm would lower the criteria for anyone, just because the candidate is a close relative of a client. It simply does not work that way.If the candidate is a deserving candidate with top academic qualifications to meet all the pre-requisites, only then the candidate might be considered for an interview. Period.

The call center provides round-the-clock medical and administrative services, including consultation, requesting pills to be delivered to your home, or requesting smoking cessation treatment.Health care is a top priority for Saudi Arabia. For example, during the COVID-19 pandemic, Saudi Arabia offered free treatment for COVID-19 patients for all, including Saudis, residents and illegal immigrants!

Nothing is stopping you, although it’s unusual for the consultant to bring it up. There’s a good chance the company hiring you will ask you to sign a non-disclosure agreement (NDA) the first day. In that case, make sure the agreement you sign is a bilateral NDA.A bilateral NDA is a contract wherein both parties agree to keep information exchanged between them a secret. Many attorneys advise on a mutual NDA in all cases in order to draft the provisions to be fair and equal for both sides in the event that the information receiving party later becomes a disclosing party.If you're looking for lawyers with experience drafting NDAs for tech businesses and consultants, then feel free to check out LawTrades.
