[quote=Anonymous]I design hiring systems for consultants. In addition to a particular topic area like finance, data analytics etc, don’t forget the other factors that set apart successful candidates who can progress in the field. I would suggest a good balance of humanities, history, or social science so that they learn to write quickly and well. During school be sure take on public facing roles, this can be the traditional officer in clubs or things like hobby improv classes, reporter for school paper or even theater minor. Many kids can crunch numbers and are very smart. Fewer kids can communicate effectively with diverse groups. Even fewer can frame problems in a helpful way based on historical trends across industries/ geographies.[/quote]
