Elaine is a Talent Acquisition specialist with prior work experience in both in-house Recruitment and HR Outsourcing environments. At ADAPTOVATE, she predominantly takes care of the full recruitment and onboarding processes for the Singapore and Australia offices.

Accompanying her is Sam Fraser who is a Project Lead with ADAPTOVATE.

Questions from the live audience at a webinar organized by Workforce SG are listed below.

1. Will someone with the age of 55 to 65 years old, might find it tough to pivot to a Management Consultant role?
2. Will you be more attracted to people who has some prior work experience in agile coaching?
3. Is the implementation of the strategy only to be taken by the client or does ADAPTOVATE get involved in that?
4. Do you have any advice for early career professionals to prepare for an interview to be a Management Consultant?
5. What are the hard skills, apart from PowerPoint, that are considered important for a management consultant?
6. What's the interview process like in Consulting?
7. What can Consultants do, if midway during the implementation of the solution, that it doesn't quite meet the clients' expectation?
8. How would you compare the job of a Management Consultant to that of an Investment Banker?
9. Who's responsible for getting clients? Is it the client partner or Business Development? Are they all Consultants right to begin with?
10. Are you only looking for Consultants right now? Or are you pretty open for others, who are looking to transition into one?
11. How does HR look for soft skills in a resume? Any quick tips on writing soft skills?
12. Is it generally prohibited for Consultants to join the clients company?
13. How do consultants learn or pick up new knowledge?

Thank you again, Sam and Elaine for answering so many questions on what goes on behind the scenes in the Management Consulting world!
