Questions to ask a consulting company

Are there opportunities for advancement?

Will there be any gaps in employment (when I don't have a project at all) or would I move projects right away when being assigned to a new one?

How long does each project last?

Are you able to ask questions in training/get extra assistance if you're stuck on something?

Do I get trained about the company I'm assigned a project for prior to jumping into it?

What is your viewpoint on diversity and inclusion (ex hiring women, people of unique ethnic backgrounds)?

Where do you see the general IT trends heading in 5 years?

How do teams work in terms of a consulting company?

How do you strive to be the top consulting company out there?

How is it being a fresh grad? Do you go on projects with your mentor and/or the people you're trained with?

Is it easy to be open with other employees and management?

What if you absolutely hate the client you're working with (ex they treat you poorly)?

During the training, if I had questions or there was parts I didn't understand, would I be able to ask questions and get extra help as opposed to being left behind like in an academic classroom setting?

What are the advantages of working at a consulting company vs. at a steady corporate job?
