(Consulting 唔只得Mgnt Consulting一種？) 2021邊啲Advisory Team會請人、無Headcount或非報不可？

繼上前簡介Management Consulting Firms McKinsey, BCG 同 Bain（MBB）之後，好多同學對Consulting/Advisory愈來愈有興趣，但就覺得MBB太難入⋯⋯其實除咗MBB外，仲有好多Consulting Firms值得報，例如Accenture、IBM，甚至係Big 4 Advisory等！不過好多同學成日話自己對Consulting有興趣，但就唔知道Consulting有分好多類型！而你報嘅時候，除左睇📍工作內容同📍發展外，一定唔可以唔知📍各Advisory functions嘅生意點，因為呢點會直接影響到📍Headcount！今日 #HKCareers 會為你詳細分析2020-21，前景最好同一定要小心嘅advisory functions，等你可以揀岩Divisions去報，下年直接晉升專業Consultant！

.

🔺邊啲Advisory Functions要小心？

好☺️！首先我地一齊睇下有邊啲Advisory functions未必有足夠Headcont請你返去：

❗️Management Consulting：Mgnt Consulting嘅工作內容好有趣同Charm，幫助客戶制定不同嘅Mgnt或Strategic development plans，加上亦係比較傳統同多人識嘅咨詢工作，所以問十個有興趣做Consultant嘅同學，有七個都會答想做Mgnt Consulting！

⭕️點解無咩Headcount：但Mgnt Consulting嘅問題係如果你想入camp BB，本身請嘅人已經好有限（詳情請參閱之前篇文），而其他2nd-tier 嘅MC firms好似OC&C等，或者係Big 4 嘅Mgnt Consulting divisions都好少headcount，所以真係唔太建議花太多力氣去報！

.

❗️Deals Advisory：以前來說Deals Team真係勁Charm！因為工作內容同投行IBD一樣，集中處理IPO/M&A Deals，無論係exposure定前景都係滿分，做過Deals 想之後轉返入投行會好有利！

⭕️點解無咩Headcount：可惜嘅係如果有睇實Market Updates嘅同學都會發現，目前市場嘅新股上市或M&A數目都大減左，唔好話Deals Advisory，連IBD生意都大受影響。所以可以揀都唔好揀報呢條team 住啦！

.

🔺邊啲Advisory Functions生意最好，務必要報？

❗️Restructuring team：顧名思義，Restructuring team主要嘅工作內容就係advise 客戶點先可以透過restructure尼大幅減少公司債務、精簡公司架構、減少開支同改善營運效率！大家可以想像係當下市況，好多公司需要節流，同減低財務風險！不過啦，亦有好多公司係倒閉之前搵Restructuring team做破產清算（計下資產同研究如何賣走剩低嘅貨品）同債務重整（睇下有無人會買入間公司等）

⭕️點解有Headcount：聽我地其中一位Coach Arthur講，今年Restructuring team嘅生意真係好唔錯，好多客需要咨詢，愈多Deals就等於條Team愈多收入，愈需要請更多年輕才俊好似你咁返去幫手！

.

❗️IT Advisory：IT Advisory做嘅工作主要有兩類，一係幫助客戶提升technical security；二就係幫助客戶嘅公司做digitalization，簡單而言就係點樣係online channels或platforms上面做多啲生意

⭕️點解有Headcount：係目前嘅市況下，公司要go online或者增加佢地嘅Online Sales and business development，因此亦需要向IT Advisory尋求幫助。而當網上業務愈來愈好時，客戶亦會需要加強technical security，所以IT Advisory真係發展得好好！除左Big 4 外，大家一定要留意埋IBM同Accenture呢兩大IT Consulting Firms！

.

🔺邊啲Advisory Functions生意Keep到，可以報？

除左上述要小心都必報嘅Advisory teams外，亦有其他teams嘅生意都係保持到正常嘅，例如Risk、Compliance、Internal control advisory 同Tax Advisory等！大家有無注意到呢啲Teams有咩共通點？就係較不受市況影響！無論點公司客都係要繼續交稅、符合Regulators嘅規定等，所以Headcount傾向穩定！

.

睇完邊啲Advisory Functions會有Headcount，咁佢地又會需要咩類型嘅人才，你需要準備邊類嘅知識先可以爭得一席位？每條team嘅人工同發展前景又會係點？為左幫助你更了解Consulting行業，裝備自己去報工，下星期嘅Webinar將會針對 Big 4 Advisory, Consulting and IT Consulting！今次個webinar 仲會特別加碼，包括 2 sets MBB Case Interview demonstration 同 solution！如果你都希望成為Consultant，咁就快啲去呢條Link報名啦！
