In this episode of CareersTalks I chat with Mohammed who works as a Management Consultant at Q5 in London. Mohamed studied engineering and managed to land a graduate consulting job without any previous consulting internships. 3 months into his graduate job, he gets laid off due to the influence of Brexit in the UK. In this episode Mohammed walks us though his interesting career journey, what he does at Q5, how he coped with being laid off and some other intetersring topics.
