Formation « Discover and access the business strategy consulting sector »

PhDs are profiles that are increasingly attractive for consulting firms, particularly in the business strategy, for their analytical skills and their autonomy. These are highly stimulating and rewarding jobs for PhDs and universities from which they graduated.
