Career College Working in Consultancy

The Career Service FSW regularly organizes a Career College on working in a specific field. 
During our Career College on Monday 19 April alumni of Leiden University will talk about what it’s like to be 'Working in Consultancy'.
How do you become a consultant/advisor? And what is it that you do all day? What capabilities and characteristics are necessary?
During this session there will be plenty of opportunity for participants to ask questions. 

Speakers

Alma Vermeulen - Kirkman Company

During the Master's specialisation Social and Organizational Psychology, Alma Vermeulen took her first steps in the field of HR Consultancy. She did not know at the time that her side job as a junior consultant would result in a further career in the workfield. Alma prepared an interactive session to talk about her career path and will give students an honest look into life as a consultant.
