How to start your career as student or graduate

Consulting is about creativity, diversity, strategic thinking and hands-on team work. Does that sound interesting? See for yourself through an internship position or find out more about becoming a consultant.

Internship

An internship with us is an opportunity to experience consulting first-hand. You'll be assigned to a working project from day one. You'll have direct contact with our clients.

Your keen mind has always responded to challenges and you won't be bored here. The learning curve is steep but we know you'll rise to it. Remember, you're not on your own. We support you. Your team supports you. They remember what it was like to be in your shoes. On successful completion of the internship, you'll have the opportunity to receive a full-time contract. Welcome aboard!

Gap Year

The Roland Berger Gap Year offers the perfect chance to combine three great opportunities in one program:

Working in consulting, in a startup company and experiencing a new culture by working abroad. During the 9-month program you take advantage of gaining detailed insights in the field of consulting, you get regular trainings, involvement in social events and the support from a mentor.

The next program period starts on October 12, 2020. The application deadline for this program period already ended. You can apply for the next Gap Year in 2021 from December 2020 onwards.

After finishing all three modules, excellent candidates receive a job offer as a Junior Consultant after finishing their Master studies.

Graduates

You are about to finish your studies or have recently graduated with impressive marks and a passion for your subject. You spent a year or two abroad, studying or through an internship, which explains your broad perspective and empathic outlook.

You have experience, such as internships, entrepreneurial ventures or charitable projects, where you've demonstrated analytical and strategic skills, team work and creativity. You'll join us as an Analyst or Junior Consultant.

Professional and personal development and training are very important to us. Your start is no exception. You'll join new colleagues worldwide in our kickoff training, where we'll show you the ropes – skills you'll rely on for the rest of your career.

You'll have access to plenty of additional training in your first year, through our extensive program of seminars, talks and coaching opportunities, together with your personally assigned mentor. If you are considering an MBA, you can also count on our support.

Your start as an Analyst or Junior Consultant will offer you variety, growth and a great introduction to a range of projects and tasks. With our focus on industry and functional competence, you'll find yourself quickly gravitating to a specialized area.

Personality. It's critical to success and you have it. A great consultant has winning ideas and is able to implement them. Strategy into reality. Sounds like you? Learn what we're looking for and jump on board.
