PTA threshold
This may partly explain the above point of view. It can be said that the threshold of PTA (non-summerintern) and full-time employees is completely two levels. There are generally two ways for consulting companies to recruit PTA, through HR unified recruitment or project manager's own recruitment. HR recruitment, generally take online open recruitment.
The project manager may have various alumni relationships (in some companies, he is still a black boy). Because of the huge demand and low requirements for work content, the requirements for people's quality naturally come down.
Many people go in and ask you to be a translator in the name of internship in a consulting company. If you often pay attention to various internship versions, you will find that the consulting company's PTA experience is flying all over the sky, and it's no big deal at all, but when it comes to formal recruitment, it requires a promotion at once, so even if you have any PTA experience, it's not a huge advantage.
Originally, there were very few regular employees, no matter how demanding they were. But I have to say that many people are trapped. After all, the recruitment of consulting companies is slightly different from other industries. Case interviews cost a lot of energy. Some people have done a lot of internships in consulting companies, but in the end they have not reached the unspoken rule of "only recruiting Beiqing to resume diplomatic relations", but I have also met many people who have never done consulting internships and finally become formal employees.
