Every week we hear the same question from candidates: Is AI going to gut consulting before I can break in?

Short answer: No.

Longer answer: The model is changing fast, and you need to know what's shifting and what isn't.

Arda Ecevit spent over 13 years at Deloitte, Strategy&, and Bain before co-founding NexStrat AI. He sat down with Namaan to talk about what AI is doing to consulting – and the parts of the job it can't touch.

  • What AI is taking off the junior consultant's plate
  • The skills that still get you hired (and promoted) at MBB
  • Why MBB is still worth joining, even with AI doing more junior analyst work
  • Where partners and clients still need humans in the room
