    Help-summer internships
    I wan't to do management consulting, and so need to get a summer internship. However, I have no relevant experience. At the moment I am working 9-5 mon to fri. So if anyone could suggest somewhere I could get experience on evenings/weekends that would be great.

    What kinds of experience do they look for? What kind of work will show an 'interest in business?'

    Thanks

    I don't think there are any places that offer part time work experience. Cold calling local firms may be more useful than applying to the big places online.

    You'll get paid for an internship, but you'll just have to reason with your manager to let you have the time off.

    Is there no voluntary work I can do which is relevant?
