Coming from a big 4 - Can we mention the names of the clients we have worked with over the years when interviewing? I am at a boutique agency now working with some people who came from Accenture and some other consulting companies and I noticed that they will reference their clients by brand name. If it is a past project and you do not give any client sensitive information is it OK to share the names of the brands that you've worked with in your previous role? What's standard?

I would not tie details of a project to a specific client name. I would only mention the industrials but from time to time finding my self saying a client name in the intro of an interview. The best practice is to leave client names and confidential details off the resume. I also see resumes listing client names but do not really hold agaist them. As long as no confidential data is shared or spoken about and an ill intent is in the play, I let it slide because we are in the same profession and take pride in the work most of time. Most of us in consulting often work with the same client. We can tell who the clients are and the type of work being performed if you are in the space long enough.
