Consulting is Temporary!
What is consulting?
Consultants are people who specialize in helping clients resolve their personal or company’s urgent problems, issues, or projects. They work across a huge range of roles and industries and share their gift of analyzing information and identifying the best path for each company to take.
Consultants tend to be individuals with at least a few years of experience under their belts in a particular field or focus. It’s this insight that they then sell as a service to other companies.
Consultants may work with multiple companies at one time, only spending a few hours a week on each. Or, they might be brought in full-time for 6 months to solve a bigger problem. It all depends on the company and the issue it’s trying to tackle.
Overall, a consultant’s job is to solve the issue they’re being hired for, and then move on to the next company.
