Civil engineer at a top firm with 1.75 YOE and a M.S looking to transition to energy/utilities or sustainability consulting. I'm currently mainly looking in Chicago specifically at Guidehouse, Hatch, and West Monroe Partners but I'm open to other firms. Any referrals or just general advice would be much appreciated!
