That's Billion with a B. Since 2000 this is one industry that has seen a constant growth year over year.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is the newest trend in business. The business world has gotten smarter, slimmer, and meaner. Instead of employing more people, they now rely heavily on hiring consultants.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHiring a consultant is easier, it is a contract job, and these consultants are not on the company's payroll, there is no benefits, no 401K plans, and no health insurance for them. So companies have fewer expenses and less legacy cost.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLet's now talk about what it takes to be a consultant. Do you need a Ph.D. on a subject to be a consultant?

Now as a consultant, he is consulting companies on how to do a solar conversion and save energy cost. He is enjoying the fruits of Green living movement.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf you are looking to be a consultant, the first thing you need to do is, soul-searching.
