Get a job at an agency that does healthcare but not exclusively healthcare. Stay for long enough and build relationships so you can eventually ask to be staffed on a non-healthcare account.

Agree with the poster above! Really important to have access to other non-health teams, as well as teams focused on new capabilities like experience strategy/design or content. It will enrich the work you do in health, as well as surface opportunities to get hands-on experience working on consumer.

We’re hiring at VMLY&R for a whole host of roles, if you’re looking...

I left Audit at a midsize firm to join KPMG erp implementation consulting about 6 months ago. So far they seem to only want to staff me on projects with a heavy focus on technical accounting and audit. Spoke to a lot of others who have left and seems like being pigeonholed or staffed on projects not related to the actual core work of the practice is the common reason. I've been on the fence about whether I should stay and hope to be staffed on better projects in the future or leave soon...

Should I wait and build up a few more years of experience before accepting a Senior role or should I jump in and work to fill the gap?
Next year, there will be an important deadline for the project I'm working on and my resignation could be critical for the team, how would you deal with it?
