Six alumni returned to Técnico to demystify the career path in consulting
Working at a consultancy firm is often associated with demanding hours, high-pressure environments and constant challenges. To demystify these stigmas and explore the opportunities in the field, six Técnico alumni shared their experiences at the Alumni Talk Consulting Edition, held on 11 December, in the Great Hall of Técnico – Alameda campus. Alexandre Correia (KPMG), Teresa Melvill de Araújo (Bain & Company), Gil Luís (BCG), Ana Pedrosa (Kearney), Bernardo Belo (Accenture) and Rui Pedro Vaz (Deloitte) represented some of the main consulting firms, several of which are members of the Técnico Partner Network.
The event ended with a special thanks to the Santander Foundation, which regularly supports these initiatives, although no representative was able to attend this edition. ‘Santander supports us on this initiative and allows us to fill this room so many times and, for that, our most sincere gratitude,’ said Carla Patrocínio, Head of the Technology Transfer Office.
