What is your biggest dream and your biggest fear?
If asked a question like this, it’s good to relate your answer back to something consulting industry is looking for, for example:
Dream
- Having a real impact on the world (name a specific example like starting a business, NGO, doing something at your job which revolutionises the industry etc.)
- Working in a driven and fun team while doing it
Fear
- The opposite of what I listed under the dream, i.e. being in a repetitive job routine, without having a real impact and working alone
Best,
Daniel
