Bored Panda wanted to know what someone should keep in mind if they’re considering a career in consulting. According to the curator of the page, they should be careful what they’re signing up for. “Consulting is like buying a boat. You’re the happiest the day you get the offer and the day you quit. Everything in between is the firm stretching you like an elastic, hoping that it doesn’t snap,” they said. Consulting is a slightly confusing term for a very straightforward concept. To put it simply, consulting firms consult other companies: they offer various specialized services. Other businesses pay them for that in-depth knowledge and know-how. Consultancies can focus on providing expertise in numerous fields, from politics and management to investment, IT, human resources, marketing, engineering, etc. (Saying that you’re a consultant is similar to telling someone that you “listen to music” or you “like movies”… sure, that’s cool, but let’s narrow that down, shall we?) The ‘Consulting Comedy’ project is a powerhouse on the internet. The odds are that, at some point in time, you’ve come across some of its posts in your favorite social media feeds. The project has a whopping 622k followers on Instagram alone. The entire project started on Instagram, so it makes sense that it has the biggest following on that particular social network. While businesses can do these things themselves, it’s a question of whether or not it’s worth it to outsource (some of) that effort. That decision is going to vary depending on the company’s size, budget, goals in question, and range and depth of skills among the staff. The latter pulls in $15 billion (that’s ‘billion’ with a ‘b’) every year and has offices in over 65 countries. Follow Bored Panda on Google News! Follow us on Flipboard.com/@boredpanda!
