Social relevant
"During my studies, I realized I only receive satisfaction from my job when it is socially relevant. And what sector is more socially relevant than the healthcare sector? At Gupta, I can make real impact on the society. This keeps me motivated to do my best every day. I am still amazed at how large the healthcare sector is in The Netherlands and how much I am discovering, even though I did a study in Health Economics. During these studies I learned mostly about hospital care and health insurers, while the health sector is so much more than that."
Project-based
"As a strategy consultant, it is possible to apply my quantitative background, but it also allows me to develop myself in other aspects of the profession. Furthermore, as the work is project-based, working does not get monotonous, which was a concern for me with other professions. Gupta Strategists offers this all and was therefore, after working here as a working student, the most logical step in my career."
