 | I will graduate this year with a degree in Informatics through the school of information, and I would like to apply to IT consulting jobs. The problem is that I don't have any previous internships, compared to other applicants perhaps. How can I make myself seem just as qualified with the experience I DO have, such as on campus jobs? Thanks.

| ABC computes the cost of each consulting job by adding a portion of firm wide support costs to the labor cost of the consultants on the job. The support costs are assigned to each consulting job using a cost driver rate based on consultant labor costs. ABC's support costs are $5 million per year, and total consultant labor cost is $2.5 million.

| I have to appear for preliminary round of interviews and am thinking if pinstripes are considered appropriate for interviews or not. Also, is it an "overkill" if I wear too formal clothing in preliminary interviews and can be laughed at? Also how about wearing pinstripe for final interviews? I am a college student interviewing for consulting jobs.

 | I am being offered a consulting job in Nigeria for about 12 working days; however this also would include spending two unpaid weekends there. I've worked for other companies and they would pay for a flight home every weekend. I would be ok with spending one weekend there, but two unpaid weekends seems like I'm being taken for granted. Any advice?
Home is Germany and I'm giving a workshop in Nigeria

| I am not a P.Eng. and a company has hinted that they may offer a consulting job to me (I am an electrical engineer with Ph.D.). They asked me to think about how much I am going to charge them as a consultant. How much do you think is appropriate? Your help is really appreciated.

 | I'm about to apply medical school and am almost done with an MS in BME. I really want to be a doctor, but have always been interested in medical investments also. My parents do not want me to be and never have encouraged me to be a doctor even though I enjoy it and have good grades. I am planning on ignoring there wishes, and pursuing medicine, but am also interested in maybe trying to find a consulting job or working during studies, and maybe medical investing down the line.

 | I'm thinking of taking on solo indie projects, like helping people set up networks, servers, troubleshooting computers, making web sites, customing MS Office apps in VBA, writing 3-tier software, backend work. You name it--I can do it. Not to brag, but I am very good at it and people know it. As an aside, I'm bad at other things like dancing and chemistry. But I am a serious computer whiz.
Isn't there some way I can spread the word and start doing jobs for people, then finally hire other people to work for me?
Marketing seems to be the problem here. I might know computers, but I have no idea how to market. I've tried using friends/word of mouth, but it just seems like a dud. Any ideas?
I don't want a consulting job. While that seems like an obvious answer, I just don't want to depend on others like that. I want to get in the driver's seat here.

| I am going to be graduating from a fairly good private school in May. I am begging to apply to some analyst position jobs at companies like amazon, google, msft, etc. I wonder if for example if I worked at retail store like Target as a seasonal job, would that help me when I apply to those firms? Is there any seasonal employment that would look favorable on my application or does it look like a lame attempt.
how about for the consulting jobs i am applying to? what can i do over winter break to give me an advantage?

| I just graduated with a bachelors in business admin. I want to work in the business consulting field...preferably strategic consulting.
I've applied to 5 of the leading consulting firms in the U.S., but unfortunately haven't had any responses to my applications. While I have graduated from one of the top 25 business colleges in the nation, I'm beginning to wonder if perhaps I'm being a little overly ambitions to get a consulting job with only an undergrad degree. Here are my questions:
1) Should I head back to school to get an MBA?
2) Would working as just a "pencil pusher" for a year, prior to applying to a consulting job, be a better idea then just shooting for a consulting job right out of school?
3) Any suggestions on a good consulting firm to apply to? (I'm not particularly interested in any one sector at this point in time, but if I had to choose I would have to pick, marketing.)
Any other suggestions or feedback would be more than welcome. Thanks.

 | I live in New York and I am currently unemployed. I am collecting unemployment now, but I wanted to know if I work as a consultant for one or two days, will I lose my unemployment benefits? The consulting job will only last one or two days and then it will be done.
A couple people have answered that I would only lose benefits for the day or two that I worked which is fine with me. I just don't want to permanently lose them. Can anyone else verify that?
