Applicant FAQs
What prospective members usually ask.
Who should apply?
Students from all majors and years are welcome. We value strong thinking, follow-through, and communication more than a specific academic background.
What is the expected time commitment?
Members should expect weekly project meetings, internal work sessions, professional development, and social programming. The exact workload depends on project stage and role.
How should I prepare for interviews?
Practice structuring ambiguous business problems, explaining assumptions out loud, and turning analysis into a clear recommendation. We care about how you think, not memorized frameworks.
Do I need consulting experience?
No. Many members join without consulting experience. Experience in research, design, engineering, marketing, writing, data, operations, or community work can all translate well.
What makes PCG different?
PCG combines client-facing consulting with technical execution and a social-impact focus. We take on a limited number of projects so teams can stay close to the actual work.
