Hey!
A public GitHub repository can be very helpful, especially for roles in digital transformation or tech-oriented consultancies like BCG X and QuantumBlack. It demonstrates your technical skills, coding practices, and ability to execute projects, which is particularly relevant for more technical roles. While it may not be mandatory, it can definitely set you apart, especially if your projects align with the firm's focus (e.g., AI/ML, data engineering, or software development).
For non-technical consulting roles, it’s less critical but still a nice-to-have if it showcases your understanding of technology. Let me know if you need tips on curating your GitHub!
