How about advisory side of PA given you have experience in Operations? However, I’m not sure which PA is currently hiring.

Thx! Will look into that

I have not been on a project for over 3 months. Since I joined, I have been put in training. The training got extended by a month and now it's close to 4 months since I joined and without a project.
