Hi,

Checkout the career forum on www.top-consultant.com. There was some info re consulting firms in Middle East. Search under 'Dubai'. Good luck.

Not directly with them but have had dealing with some of their guys previously on projects where scopes have overlapped. They do seem well respected here but at the same time so do most of the high end management consultant providers.

Most of the significant co's, the Delta's, Accenture’s etc have some form or representation here so if you have contacts at those it may be worth sounding them out for their impressions.

And from the cynical part of me, bear in mind we are in a city built on buzz words and hype so any industry provider that had these as fundamental attributes or as apart of the core strategy / service offering is bound to be well received...

Any specific reason behind the request?

Thanks for the reply. Mckinsey will be interviewing a friend of mine and three of his colleagues from the Harvard MBA program for a position at their office in Dubai.
