For folks who made the jump into industry, did interviewers probe into your staff levels (assoc, sr)? I'd like a way to focus the convo on my role/impact over rank, and prefer leaving it off my CV.

Yeah you need to include your role, half of the time it’s simply a formality, but with your previous experience, it shouldn’t be a deterrent, especially as BCG2 said, a lot of people don’t understand consulting levels.
Ie: associate is entry level at PWC, or pre manager level at other firms

As a disclaimer, I would inform whoever asks what my staff level is, but I'd like to increase my chances of not get screened out for the types of roles I'm interested (and feel qualified) to pursur before I have a chance to have these conversations. And some tips to navigate the perception that say, a senior associate, might not be senior enough for the role at hand (I'm an experienced hire, 10 years, from about a year ago, and it's the first time in my career where I've been placed so clearly along a hierarchy, which has been challenging).

Most industry people don’t know consulting roles. I was also in industry and I can tell you that if people left their title off their resume but had a lot of “impact” I immediately assumed they were hiding something.
Wouldn’t your resume show your prior 10 years of work? No hiring manager would ignore it

No one cares. Tell stories on how you impacted outcomes

It your impact was exceptional for your level, I would expect to see accelerated level progression. Either way, level needs to be included. Leaving off level would actually draw more attention to it and possibly result in automatic screening
