He explains how his initial academic performance made him realize the competency B-schools had and the amount of effort he had to put in to stay competitive.
What if your academic performance is weak?
Only a few students get through and are recruited by Day zero companies. Saurabh did not get through this process; he believed his academic performance shouldnât hinder the BIg companies from hiring him.
He also talks about why he wanted to do an MBA and how his passion for business started while being a coder at Infosys. He shares his experience working with the sales team at Unilever while doing his MBA.
Watch the entire video to understand how consulting services handle operations and their function toward the specific needs of a client.
He also talks more about the work-life of a consultant and the challenges you should be prepared to deal with. Added to this, he advises you to look at your career from a long-term perspective and lead a life that balances both good and bad that comes as a package with this job.

This is probably the first time they have invited a Partner at a major consultancy firm .Also I have been binge watching this channel, gr8 content!
Not exactly man, in some of the previous editions of this Kon. Cafe, they've invited partners from BCG(of different offices) to come & share their experiences among us. Mrs Seema Bansal, Mr. Anirudh Tara etc. Are some of the names of Partners at BCG that I can recall currently, who'd been invited to this platform before as well. So do check the channel for their videos.
Binge watching InsideIIM will surely help you in long term.

In the initial years in india , new ( as in someone with less than 5 year domain experience ) consultant has so much opportunity to learn at the cost of hapless client who is dreaming that they have hired someone who already possess capabilities to handle the issues đ !
There are some who Learn & Apply while then there are some others who Try & Learn. We guess it's different for all.
The host seems rude and unprofessional, he should be sitting with better posture and asking questions in a much more formal yet enthusiastic manner. This is not the right attitude to be displayed in front of an older successful gentleman.
He isn't. I am a public speaker/anchor myself. Since you know so much, I'll be happy to watch you perform.
Completely agree. His most interviews are similar. Shows hint of disrespect
Please create timestamps for videos !
Yes, we will add them soon!
Thanks for the suggestion
You guys only shows successful people and from IIMs, show people who have gone from normal college and still ruling the industry.
That's only in USA any course there u get better job

Can anyone from Bangladesh apply and get into IIM?
Its is possible in BIMs
kyu faltu ghisna hai bhai..mast pahado me chill kro na
Audio quality poor
What exactly caused the problem?
Would you elaborate.
This glorified consulting firms are just making fancy ppts and speak high end English and pose as problem solvers. Govt should stop wasting money on this firms. There are our ias officers who for the incentives of post retirement jobs with this firms advice govt to go for this consultancy firm for suggestions
