[@jchung5066]

i want to watch this series 52 times a year

[@bykchoi]

LOL aw :)

@@bykchoi omg i love you!! You're my inspiration

[@AlexaThinks]

Me teewww!

[@angelica4770]

I don't see a lot of vlog for proffessional life. Your channel has some unique contents.

[@bykchoi]

Thank you ☺️

[@SamElle]

I ALWAAAYS make sure to block time on my calendar so Im not constantly disturbed my phone calls or meetings!!! I definitely need like 3 hour blocks where I can just work

[@bykchoi]

yes! but sometimes those blocks of time just get taken away D:

[@savitashankar8575]

The design of this vlog is great - the way you have interwoven the questions to the time when you are actually doing that activity during the course of the week is a treat to watch. This is one of those vlogs wherein the format and content does need some amount of scheduling and sequencing. Loved it.

[@bykchoi]

So glad you liked it!! Thank you :)

[@Artwithzee]

I love watching this kind of video's and You are my inspiration🥰

[@RoseyWarm]

I love watching this type of video, we love your honesty showing how your life as a consultant for a week look like. Might be an inspiration for those who wanna be like you! And I just started my own KZbin channel, so I know how hard it is to keep yourself organized and consistent by filming and editing very often. You're such an inspiration and very much an organized person!

[@Hereiam_Anna]

I liked the format of this video; how you answered questions as you approached your week tackling the related matter. The information is very digestible. Thank you so much!

[@bykchoi]

Ahh thank you!! So glad you liked it!

[@ChristineWong]

I can completely relate to you about powerpoints, HAHAHAHA. Being a tech consultant on implementations, probably only around the design phase when we explain concepts we use PPTs, but even so, they're templates we use everywhere so it's not like we actually build PPTs, haha.

[@bykchoi]

LOL yes!!

[@ronobh5469]

Your videos are therapeutic

[@daisyinthelife]

Your videos are so informative and insightful. Thank you for taking the time and putting in the effort for such high-quality content.

Hi there, how's your job going? I should be starting soon so just checking on your experience so far, thanks

[@cdandreshotmail]

did you think about a desk setup video ?

[@bykchoi]

maybe! i don't think it's super interesting so maybe i'll play around with Instagram Reels or something! :)

[@huangspencer5594]

I love watching your 'week/day in life as a consultant videos'!! and love watching the part you working haha! I am a consultant as well and I just joined the firm right after graduation so I can resonate on a lot of things you said in the video. Love the series and hopefully we can see more!!

[@Ricccardo80]

So glad I found your videos :) What's the ergonomic chair called and where did you get it? I'm in the market for a new chair since I also suffer from a bit of back and butt pain from sitting in a chair all day

[@bykchoi]

it was the Sleekform Austin Kneeling Chair! but i've switched over to a chair from Branch and I love it!

[@briadnaalmazo3990]

Your sweater on the Monday section looks so cozy! Where is it from? NYC just got hit with a cold weather spell and thinking about finding a sweater like that for the next winter!

[@bykchoi]

Everlane! Don’t think they have it anymore but I believe there’s still a crew neck version

[@meganamsalem5582]

I am also a consultant and I also have the exact same London mug you used on Tuesday!!! Twins!

[@tobiasschumacher4538]

Ask questions (don’t just try to figure everything out on your own) and form really good relationships with the people you’re working with!

[@baileygoodstein6806]

Omg I love your vids!!!! Where is your jacket from?!?!

[@bykchoi]

The beige one is from Everlane but I don’t think it’s in stock anymore! I think they have a similar crewneck one though

[@haileyqian4609]

You’re always cool, calm and collected, which I love! But i really want to see you couldn’t pull yourself together, or just lost in life or even just get lazy haha

i want to become a consultant but dont know how to do it. can i be a consultant and work from home for my whole career and survive on it? what type of consultant would i be doing? where should i begin? im still in school. what should i do to prepare to get experience?

[@bykchoi]

Most firms have people working remotely right now but that’s because of the pandemic. Whether or not you can work remotely in the future will depend on the company (and who knows how much consultants will travel after the pandemic as well). There are so many types of consulting (strategy, management, tech, etc) so the best thing would be to try and talk to people who are in those fields to learn more about what you want to pursue. And you should apply for summer college internships at consulting firms as well. Hope that helps a little!

[@joyss5725]

Can u say how often you travel?

[@bykchoi]

I haven’t traveled in the last year because of COVID but before that, I used to travel a couple of times a week on average :)

[@mitavarma]

Hiii! so i am considering applying to colleges in LA in either Communication studies or PR. I feel stuck and am stressed out about what to choose. I like social media and can picture myself doing something in thi particular area. I also like vlogging and create videos for youtube on the side! What do you reccomend? which college did you go to? what degree etc.?

[@bykchoi]

I majored in English! It really doesn’t matter what you major in, in my opinion. It’s more about your internship/work experience. But if you know for sure you want to do social media/communications, then it’s definitely fine to major in that!

[@mitavarma]

@@bykchoi thank you for responding so quickly! but what college did you go to, and was it any good? i am scared ahah://

[@bykchoi]

I went to UC Berkeley :)

[@edyraper]

I want to break into MBB, the most difficult part for is the breaking into part. Seriously, I watched/read and did a lot of projects during my education and I liked it. But my school is not a target school and I study overseas where local language fluency is a must. If you have any suggestions I am open to them.

[@MsLadyLancelot]

can you link your ergonomic chair?

[@bykchoi]

I got it from Facebook marketplace but it’s the Sleekform Austin kneeling chair! Just added it to my Amazon storefront (which should be in the description box)!

[@blairmclaughlin2680]

are you more naturally introverted/extroverted? I'm somewhere in the middle. do you find that successful consultants lean one way or the other?

[@bykchoi]

yes, somewhere in the middle too i think! no, i don't think it matters :)

[@Fading_Melody]

What was your major in college?

[@bykchoi]

English! Then worked in public relations for a few years, got a masters in management and then switched into change management consulting
