Thor and Oliver from Vektus explain what drew them to work as Business Central consultants, with one citing the technical side of the job. They describe the Microsoft Talent program as a mix of theory and practice, with knowledge steps that end in the MB800 final exam.

They recommend the career to others. ## Key points - One speaker became a Business Central consultant because the work mixes the technical side with working with people. - The Microsoft Talent program is praised for combining theory and practice. - The program is thoroughly planned, with structured knowledge steps leading to the final exam (captioned as mp800, likely MB800). - Work-life balance in the profession is described as very good, with hours easy to place where you want them. - Outside work, one speaker rides mountain bikes and another plays disc golf to unplug. - A speaker recommends the consultant career, looks forward to perfecting skills, and hopes to still be a consultant 25 years from now. ## Chapters - [0:00](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rjnydcb0LDE&t=0s) Why become a Business Central consultant - [0:29](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rjnydcb0LDE&t=29s) Microsoft Talent program and knowledge development - [1:09](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rjnydcb0LDE&t=69s) Work-life balance and personal interests - [1:50](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rjnydcb0LDE&t=110s) Future outlook and career aspirations ## Features Every feature below: status not stated. | Feature | At | |---|---| | Microsoft Talent Program | [0:29](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rjnydcb0LDE&t=29s) | | MB800 Certification Exam | [0:49](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rjnydcb0LDE&t=49s) | ## Quotes - [0:09](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rjnydcb0LDE&t=9s) "I wanted to be a business Central consultant um primarily because of the tech side I'm a really techy person other than being a" - [0:29](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rjnydcb0LDE&t=29s) "the thing I like about the Microsoft Talent program is uh the mix of the theory and the practice um I think it's a" - [1:09](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rjnydcb0LDE&t=69s) "take the mp800 final exam the work life balance in this profession is is really really good it's really easy to put your hours" - [1:09](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rjnydcb0LDE&t=69s) "I ride a lot of mountain bike I really like it because I love using my body being physical there's always kind of a" - [1:50](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rjnydcb0LDE&t=110s) "I would highly recommend other people becoming a business rental consultant I'm definitely looking forward to the coming years where I get chance to" Presenters (as heard): Thor, Oliver.
