We will reach out to each applicant shortly.
Deadline:
28th of Oct, 23:59pm
We will carefully review each application. You can expect to hear from us within two days after the application window closes, regardless of the outcome.
If you are a good fit for our student club, we invite you to one of our assessment centers (2nd or 3rd of Nov) to get to know you better. We'll evaluate your motivation, problem-solving skills, and interpersonal abilities.
Once you have convinced us of your qualities, you will become an official member of 180DC Frankfurt. We will kick-off this year's batch with an offsite the week after the assessment center.
Provide an overview of your work history, academic journey, and extracurricular activities. If you need a template, you can use the one below:
TemplateShare your passion for consulting and specifically 180DC Frankfurt. Write about how your previous experience will help you succeed. Half a page to one page is enough!
Please include academic transcripts and references from previous employment, if available.
The goal of the assessment center is for both parties to find out whether they are a good fit for each other. That is why we aim to be as transparent as possible, giving you an accurate impression of what you can expect at 180DC Frankfurt, including all benefits and responsibilities.
All candidates will be interviewed twice. Each interview consists of a brief introduction (5min), a personal fit section (20min), a short case study (20min), and your chance to ask the interviewer individual questions in the end (5min). All interviews will be held in German.
The personal fit section helps us to assess your motivation and whether you are likely to develop with us throughout the membership. We will ask questions about your motivations, background, and the rationale behind certain life decisions.
The case study helps us to assess your problem-solving skills and whether you are likely to do well on our projects. Each candidate will encounter one market sizing and one simplified business problem. We recommend candidates to train their structuring, calculation, and communication abilities.
Our team will review each candidate individually. We do not recruit a set amount of student consultants, so our decision for one candidate does not compete with another. All candidates will receive detailed feedback on their performance on the same day, regardless of our decision. All successful candidates are invited to join our team for dinner the same day to celebrate their membership.
Visit us at Goethe's 'UNISTART-Messe'. You will find our stand outside. Get to know our members and ask questions in a personalised setting!
Our first info session will be hosted online. You will get an overview of our student club and the chance to talk to our consultants in break-out rooms.
Our second event will take place in person. We will talk about our club and answer questions. There will be enough pizza, beer, and wine for everyone.
We recommend every candidate to prepare thoroughly for both, the personal fit & case study interview.
For the personal fit interview, reflect on your life journey and future ambitions. Think about how different phases in your life have shaped who you are, both personally and professionally. You should be able to clearly articulate why you want to do certain things.
For the case interview, practice your structuring, communication, and mental math (accuracy for simple calculations) abilities. We suggest doing 3-5 mock interviews with friends to get comfortable with the typical case flow. If you are looking for case prep resources, we recommend the free course from crafting cases, especially the market sizing, math, and brainstorm module.

No. We hire based on talent, not experience. Most of our new members each year are freshman.
Documents can be submitted in German or English.
No. Students from the entire Frankfurt area are welcome to apply. However, we expect everyone to attend events in person. Most of our members study at Goethe University, Frankfurt School or TU Darmstadt.
