Italia] Is the language barrier still high for non client facing roles?

Hello.


I'm an MBA candidate with 5+ years industry experience, and Italy is one of the most famous countries for my Industry.


I don't speak Italian fluently (currently B2) so I guess I can't apply for a generalist/consultant role, however, I'd like to check the possibility for specialist or similar positions. In other words.. language can be a high barrier in Italy also for non client facing roles? (For overall consulting firms including Accenture, BIP, etc..)


I would like to know if there could be any possibility to enter consulting companies there without speaking local language fluently.


Thank you in advance for any advice !
Hi,


Having worked in BCG's Italian system, I can tell you that in special circumstances, a few employees were hired who did not have strong local language capabilities. If in doubt, you can write to local HR and ask for the requirements. 


Best,

hi bhautik,


being eligible to write cat is different from being eligible to get into iims. there are so many factor based on which you get an interview call. when a student applied for iims right after bachelors, then inadvertently academics become the only criteria for them to decide. this however, is not the case with experience candidates. one you have a good industry experience of 3 years you can hit it better. if you seriously wish to pursue mba do not limit yourself to iims on and look for atleast 5 best bschools in the country. you are eligible to write all the entrance exams but i would suggest you to build an extremely strong profile before you apply. all the best.feel free to reach out to me should you have any further questions. typically even in an informal interview i will have reviewed a candidate's resume. so yes, to some degree, i will have learned about the candidate's occupation. the purpose of the interview will then determine how much detail i go into with the candidate on their occupation. is it the first step toward employment for an open job for which the candidate is qualified? is it a courtesy interview where i'm helping a candidate learn about a company? am i simply helping a student to polish their interview skills? the level of formality and explorations of one's occupation and related qualifications can change significantly based on the answer to many of these questions. generally speaking, no it would not be too hard as long as you are willing to put in the time to read and such, but the material and concepts are not difficult. finding a wife. might leave the bay area for it (among other reasons)career wise i’m not too ambitious. i’m already l5 and would be 100% happy with that comp outside of the bay area. not sure if principal/l6 is worth the added stress. Language courses are generally a mix. Specially Spanish, which is a very diverse language. hello team
could anyone could please help me in knowing the details regarding the job vacancies for mba finance freshers. as i m currently pursuing my mba and want to know about the future in this field so that i can have a clear idea of about my future when i come out to the society. so guys please help me and make me aware of the things so that i can be able to do all things q: i have a friend who is a realtor in another state.i am planning to sell my home and am in the market for a local real estate agent to help me do this. my out-of-state friend said she could ... hey everyone,

i was in a similar spot last year and was going through ft recruitment without having a major banking internship on wall street. i come from a super non-target and ended up doing a masters of finance this year at a decently known school. by being super diligent and persistent i was able to land a job on the street. my advice if you are coming from a background like mine would be to find an internship whether paid or unpaid that offers some type of transaction experience over this summer. see above - exit opps are there, but i'd be lying if it's easy to get into a hf/pe job from a fof.

so, there are a lot of transferable skills you can develop if you want - for example, if your firm does co-investments, you're still going to have to work closely with the fund on the underwriting, and so you'll get a lot of exposure that way. *any examples are for illustrative purposes only.*  
  
the definition of a peer (see hr 02.01.03 ep 6) is someone from the same discipline. for example, physicians for physicians, dentists for dentists, podiatrists for podiatrists, etc. it does not have to be someone in the same specialty (orthopedist, etc.).  
  
to be able to provide a reference, the peer must be familiar with the individual's actual performance.  for a nurse practitioner, physician assistant, psychologist or social worker, ideally, this would be an individual from the same discipline.  therefore, the organization should attempt to obtain such references. this could be an individual from within the same organization or someone from outside the organization.  
  
in situations where there is no nurse practitioner, physician assistant, psychologist, or social worker to provide a peer reference, it is acceptable for a physician with like qualifications that is familiar with the practitioner's performance, to provide the reference. for example, an internist could provide a reference for a physician assistant, an anesthesiologist for a nurse anesthetist, a psychiatrist for a psychologist, and a psychologist, with similar responsibilities, could provide a reference for a social worker.
