Do tech/STEM focused MBAs help transition into product or technical product roles in the industry?
And do consultants exit to any industry or just ones they have done engagements in?

In my experience as long as you can reposition yourself right, nothing matters. Focus on showing off the transferable skills and you’re good. If you’re looking to do a MBA just to get into tech, I’d advise against it though.

Hey fish, I need some guidance and advice based on experience. How does one easily transition out of consulting when work is 60+ hours a week? Finding a new role is not always quick, especially if you trying to move away from your current industry. Does anyone have recommendations for specific headhunters or other methods of finding a new role while working consulting hours?
