Why not target both? The skillsets and interview prep overlap, so as long as you can manage networking for both, go for broke.

I summered in a product role in big tech to try it out and decided to go for consulting FT

I just found the product role specifically to be a bit myopic. Super focused on a small piece of the puzzle vs. big picture. S&O roles in tech were also an options but generally less “prestigious” and respected than product (that was the impression I was left with - I don’t necessarily agree).

I spoke with a recruiter recently about a position in her company and before we even began talking about the job, she asked if I needed an sponsorship, I told her no, I dont need one. But she continued to press on the subject until I had to tell her I was a US citizen. I dont know why, but the whole conversation made me extremely uncomfortable. So my question is, can recruiters ask you about your visa/immigration status even when I told her I didnt need a sponsorship??
