Management Consultants
A day in the life of a Management Consultant
Companies, to improve efficiency and profitability, hire management consultants to identify problems and recommend solutions. Consultants’ objectives can be limited to analyzing such issues as shipping functions and then streamlining procedures. Alternatively, their goals may be broadly defined and include reorganizing a multinational corporation to take advantage of the synergies that developed when it acquired new businesses. “Sometimes you’re asked to solve a particular problem, and you find that the problem is just a symptom of another problem, so you need to spend a lot of time at the beginning identifying where to start and what you need to do,” wrote one consultant. The need to spend time at the beginning doing research, identifying areas of concern, and mapping out how the different areas of a business affect one another is often a difficult sell to clients who want immediate results. “No one wants to hear that you’ve got to look at five years of data—they want you to tell them how to fix things today,” wrote another. Management consultants have to be accomplished analysts, attentive listeners, and firm but tactful communicators. They are thinkers and problem solvers who know how to convince others that change is needed. Though even starting management consultants make good money (and income rises considerably with experience), our surveys indicate that candidates must be willing to sacrifice time from their personal lives. Nearly all survey respondents say that 60-hour workweeks are part of the training and education process—some report up to 90-hour workweeks—and that travel and time spent on-site at clients’ offices can be considerable. Consultants must get used to leaving home on Sunday for a business trip and not returning until Thursday or Friday. Individuals who do management consulting in government agencies tend to be more serene about their lot, citing more regular hours and interesting work. Satisfaction is generally high in this career, despite its demands. (Source: The Princeton Review)
Cherie Martin & Associates requires that its Management Consultants at a minimum hold a Masters Degree, and prefer candidates who majored in one of the following areas: law, business, economics, statistics, mathematics, computer science, and logic.

Executive Assistants & Administrative Support Professionals
Executive Assistants often start out as Administrative Support Professionals -- performing general office tasks -- then graduate to juggling tasks for the higher-ups. While the responsibilities of Executive Assistants still include the Administration Support Professional's tasks of managing the boss's calendar, coordinating meetings, and taking messages, Executive Assistants are also tasked with providing high-level administrative support to our company and our top executives.
At Cherie Martin & Associates, our Executive Assistants do not merely work alongside our company executives: they often have direct contact with our clients. For this reason, we are increasingly seeking applicants with college experience in fields such as marketing, advertising, psychology, sociology, business, finance, and information technologies -- and will give applicants with Associates degrees and Bachelor's degrees preferred consideration.
