Then an internship at CPC is just right for you!
Are you already in at least the fourth semester of your Bachelor's degree or are you on a Master's course? Are you toying with the idea of entering the consulting industry through an internship? Do you want to broaden your horizons or experience the consulting field first-hand?
What consulting at CPC means
In more than 25 years, CPC has completed over 1,500 projects. Interns have always been an important support in our day-to-day business. A large proportion of our most experienced CPCers today joined us as interns
We solve various problems as part of these projects:
- With our Change Management-method, we support our clients in restructuring their company or implementing major changes, e.g. in the areas of agility and digitalization. In doing so, we raise awareness of the need for change and ensure its feasibility in practice.
- Our project management solutions support our customers in transferring methods into practice and at the same time create operational added value - from project planning to rollout.
- Our individual and interactive solutions for digital learning empower and inspire customers at all hierarchical levels worldwide. We enable learning and personal development - even in times of purely virtual collaboration.
What can you expect from us? That can be very different. The only certainty is that you will work with us on exciting projects that are as diverse as our customers.
What we expect from you
Of course, we don't expect you to join us as a ready-made consultant. We are looking for people with a generalist orientation, who are curious and can quickly familiarize themselves with new topics, who are hands-on and show initiative and for whom the new and unknown is a welcome challenge. Experienced consultants will support you - professionally, methodically and personally.
It's no secret that there are big differences when it comes to internships, especially in the management consultancy sector. We see a consulting internship as give and take. We give you the space to gain experience and learn something. But we also want to benefit from your skills and knowledge and get to know you better. That's what we mean by team play.
What you can expect from us
- You will gain a realistic insight into the life of a consultant and will be able to make an informed decision as to whether you would like to pursue a career in consulting.
- Together we will explore whether you and CPC are a good fit beyond the internship and whether we want to pursue a common path, e.g. a permanent position after completing your studies.
Who we are looking for
We are looking for people who can identify with our values and fit in well with our team. In addition, you will have a very good command of German and English, organizational skills, flexibility and initiative. You are also proficient in Excel and PowerPoint and are motivated to learn a lot in a short space of time.
Are you open-minded, outgoing and approachable? Then you have important qualities for personal success at CPC. Ideally, you have also gained your first practical experience in the professional world or demonstrated your commitment in challenging part-time jobs.
Who will guide you through the recruiting process
We attach great importance to a fair and meaningful selection process. After all, we are not just looking for you for an internship, but also as a potential colleague for the future.
During the selection process, you will therefore have contact with various CPCers. This will allow you to get to know your future colleagues personally. It will also give you the opportunity to show us your self-contained and committed art.
What application documents we need from you
In addition to your contact details, we ask you to send us an informative letter of motivation and a CV with relevant supporting documents (internship, work and university certificates or current transcript of records). Please upload these via our application form. You are welcome to send your cover letter to Anne Schlonsak.
