Exit opps for tech consulting if I don't want to do any more implementations? 3 years in and sick of this shit. I have no desire to learn anymore SAP or Oracle and my background isn't even in tech.

Hmm interesting, I'll look into that - thanks! Need to do my research outside of ERPs then. So far I've done the typical BA role, functional testing (aka bitch monkey), test lead, pmo analyst (aka another bitch monkey), pmo lead and currently in a SME role. Hated all of them. Not sure if my problem is with my expectations, with Accenture, or with tech consulting as a whole.

D1, what positions would you be looking at in startups?

like

1) get out of ERPs, first mistake 2) specialize is functional/ business architecture requirements it's all workshops with clients to understand what they want the system to do, you document it write it as statements ship it off to the poor souls who have to do something with it. You always leave when the client is still excited about the work. It rubs off

Did all the ones above. So far only enjoy the functional requirements analyst and lead role and the deliverable review lead role. Get in, get out, get on with another one.

Offering advice to job seekers who go around recruiters and message hiring teams, execs, etc. You are putting the Recruiters job in danger. If a Recruiter declines you or doesn’t choose to reach out, it is because the hiring team declined you, or you don’t have the experience. You will most likely not be considered for future roles because of this. When I see people giving advice to reach outside the Recruiter, it’s bad advice. Very rare is this a good idea.
