Currently work at a tech company as an implementation consultant but am looking to transition into Big 4 / traditional consulting. I’m finding that the job descriptions are all pretty vague with qualification requirements.

Do I apply for any role that sound interesting and hope for the best or are there specific titles that would match my tech consulting background better?

Hello Everyone,

I am in search of a Project Manager role. I have about 4 + years experience managing projects and in consulting.

I am about concluding the google certificate in project management, and one unique think I bring into any team is my strategic thinking and ability to solve problems in record time.

I am based in Canada and a remote role will be great.

I anticipate your responses and recommendations thank you very much.
