Later today, I’ll post about “How management consultants assess interviews”. For now, here are some quality reads/resources from the consulting blogosphere:

• Considering a career in consulting? Avoid these 5 stupid mistakes – from Ramit’s blog. A few factual errors but points well made
• Why Consultants? – an old post from Bnjammin’s blog that provides insight into the nature of consulting
• Jack Bauer’s Guide to Investment Banking Success – from the Inquisitor’s blog, despite the title, much of the advice applies to consulting as well (especially #2, 3, 6, 7, and 9)
• Plane Etiquette Refresher – from the Crazy Consultant blog
• Booz & Co enters India – no surprise here. Even in times of overall hiring downturns, specific regions are expanding quickly

Finally, I’ve been recommending this site to interview prep clients. It’s written by a former McKinsey consultant, with great FAQs and videos on how to approach and conquer case studies.

Thanks for reading! If you’re new, here are some recommended posts: The Consulting Industry 101; Investment Banking vs Management Consulting; Day in the life of a Management Consultant; Overview of the recruiting process; The Management Consulting Dictionary
