Prepare for or find the role? Consulting plays really well into corporate strategy. I don't think a manager title is all that hard. I am a director of corporate strategy fwiw, but we don't have any undergrad level people in strategy.

Case interview. Not ops based (i.e. Performance improvement or margin improvements), it'll be more go to market strategy type of stuff. You'll probably get the analyst title with 2 years of experience

I need advice.
I work at an manufacturing company as a technician. My job title is a technician but they use me as an engineer as-well. There are three techs overall in the company. My boss who hired me understands what my degree is in so he uses me to design parts and write reports. The plant manager doesn’t know my skills so anytime I’m in the office working he calls me to the floor to do something the other techs can do. Should I have a talk with the boss about it? (I ran out of characters)

I'm SVP/strategy for a PR agency. I moved into PR, Healthcare, and Strategic Planning only 3 years ago.

Or that I'm qualified). But long-term, knowing account roles are so much more plentiful than brand planning in PR, I'm wondering if I should start thinking about account. Anyone here moved from strategy to account?
