Stay client facing as long as you can

Tech Consulting, made the same choice myself a while back. No regrets as I've managed to travel to 3 diff countries (client travel), hit status on 2 airlines, and taken around 6-8 personal trips using points, upgraded myself left and right at top resorts.
Better to be client facing than back office

I agree with D but doing it for the points is just stupid

Isn't knowledge specialist internal?

Yes!

Wouldn't the Bain specialist role gain subject matter expertise? I just don't feel challenged at D right now.

Ride the D

You will get expertise, but you will also be back-office. Do you want the challenges and prestige of being client-facing, or the quality of life and expertise of a specialist?... mind you we fully respect knowledge specialists, it's just that you'll be support staff.

Some recruiter in Accenture lined me up for an interview for a role which was not in my skillset ( by saying that this is just an evaluation exercise and they will map me to the right role) and obviously I got rejected. Now I see that I am not eligible to apply the role which I was targeting for the next 6 months. Any idea how can I get this escalated so that the recruiter ( Accenture employee) should at least be careful in future before fooling a noob like me?
