I’ve moved from technology consulting to digital this year. My experience is that it’s a lot easier to move from consulting background than others who move there from industry (e.g. UX/designer backgrounds). The edge you have from consulting is that it is easier for you to link up a digital solution to business processes and map these to business value. I’ve found most people who join digital from industry usually struggle to understand the client’s business.

Which digital practice? EY has quite a few since they love to call everything digital. Are you talking CGP Digital transformation (now Experience Design)?

OP I’m guessing you’re talking about Experience Design team. If you’re in bap/tap, Idealab is usually where people start and understand if it’s something for you.

I have two questions. I have 10 years of experience in multiple sectors and I have been trying to gain a leadership position. I am attempting my PHR this summer but what are some tips in order for me to obtain a leadership position? Also, how long does it take to obtain another position out of state? I am trying to move to Houston but I don’t want to move until I am confident I can obtain a position in the city before packing up and leaving.

There’s also a lot of nicks here and there (some locks missing from door, dents, scratches, stains, and some things are loose). But overall, the house’s architecture and design is so beautiful. Would it be worth it to get it and fix it up? Or find a newer house with less maintenance?
