IIM students launch portal to help new consultants

Lucknow,
Oct 23 (IANS) Interested in a career in business consultancy, but don’t
know where to begin? Well, for starters, you could log on to
www.learn2consult.com, a portal launched by three students of the
Indian Institute of Management (IIM).

“The
portal has been designed in such a way that it acts as a one-stop shop
for all those who want to know about consulting or want to start their
career in the field,” said IIM Lucknow (IIML) student and co-founder of
the portal Karan Ahuja.

The portal’s other founders are Alok Rustagi, a student of IIM Kozhikode, and Rajat Kashyap of IIML.

“As
there was no comprehensive portal dedicated to graduate students,
management students or beginners who want to make a career in
consulting, we thought of designing such a website,” added Ahuja.

The portal has also been linked to industry experts in order to provide expert guidance.

The
other highlight of the portal is its ‘Ask the expert’ section where
beginners can find answers to their queries and questions.

According to the IIM students, there are still lots of speculations and myths about consulting as a profession.

Most
of the students don’t have a clear focus towards consulting. This is
primarily due to traditional preference for finance oriented jobs and
lack of dedicated courses designed to train people in consulting
skills, they said.
