If you are an advanced degree student looking to break into consulting, Vinura’s story is for you.

With a background in research and a history in medicine, Vinura decided to pursue consulting as a way to branch out from his medical background. Despite being the only student in his program to recruit for consulting, he landed a BCG offer.

In this conversation, he shares the passion that drove him to consulting, the struggles and successes he experienced with recruiting, and the usefulness of “bridge” programs for students in the advanced degree pipeline looking to break in.
