- Create an onboarding plan for yourself. What would you want to learn and do to get oriented to our goals and work? What timeline would you anticipate those activities taking? - Improve overall predictability of our pipeline for consulting projects, including measures for increasing both the quantity and quality of prospective client projects. - Consulting is our main money-maker, but we need it to run much more predictably and efficiently so we have the capacity for as many projects as possible while also doing referral-worthy work for our clients. Some of our biggest challenges with operations revolve around maintaining our pipeline at a level that makes it possible to predict quarterly revenue and plan for growth. Additionally, while our sales process is reasonably well-documented and adhered to, our project execution is very inconsistent, from how projects are carried out to the quality of the deliverables to clients. We would also like to hire a learning business consultant but have struggled to identify candidates capable of the high standards we hold for ourselves and our clients. We would like you to create a comprehensive plan that outlines specific strategies, refinements, and changes that will lead to success in resolving key issues that we’re experiencing in our consulting services. The plan should outline all strategies and tasks so that we can see success within 90 days of implementation. We would like you to create a 90-day plan that resolves/improves on the following: • Improve overall predictability of our pipeline for consulting projects, including measures for increasing both the quantity and quality of prospective client projects. • Recommend processes for identifying and vetting strong candidates for consulting positions and then onboarding them so they are ready to secure new business and assume full leadership of client engagements within 90 days of being hired.

Very first question without introduction or building report but was meant to break the ice, but set entire interview off on a very bad tone was, "If you were a kitchen appliance, what would you be and why."
