3 YOE in M&A consulting. Interested in education consulting for high school and higher ed. No idea if this is a feasible path.

Any firms I should look at? NYC based.

Also - is the salary for these types of jobs significantly less than management consulting?

I wouldn't do it. The consulting work is usually on the "business" side of education, so it may ruin your passion for the space

I think it's important to remember what we mean when we say "business"-side of education. No one wants to work for the University of Phoenix. But curriculum and assessment providers, instructional tool designers, operating non-profits, impact investors, SEL curriculum providers? The education market is huge, and because it inevitable is trying to sell to mission-driven stakeholders even as a for-profit company, it can still be personally meaningful.

Check out Tyton Partners. Boston based, but big player in the education consulting space

Check out Tyton Partners. Strategy consulting focused exclusively on everything education (early childhood to higher ed, workforce). Works with non-profits, for-profit companies, investors, foundations etc.

Check out Huron. They do a bunch of higher Ed consulting. Some of the work is ERP focus, and the other is a combination of strategy and guidance for university offices and admins.

So I made this bowl awhile ago and I honestly haven’t been on the app in a minute and I’m so happy to see so many people utilizing this!!! I hope you all take time for yourselves and know that you do incredible work every day that is so under-appreciated. On a side note going along with under-appreciated and underpaid: does anyone have suggestions for a side hustle? I need to make more money and I work from home full-time so time commitment isn’t an issue. Thanks I’m advance!

What should I expect during my call with Deloitte’s recruitment advisor? I received a verbal offer last week, and a meeting invite this week with the advisor.
