Hey folks- I have 17+ experience in data & AI, working in solutioning engineering, architecture and leading regional technical teams and product management. I recently finished my MBA with one of the "sought after" schools. I'm trying to get into management consulting, but having hard time getting intros/connections. LinkedIn wasn't helpful. Any advice on intros that you can help with? Based in Sydney, so naturally looking here, but open to UAE as well (lived there before for 10 years). #MBB

Honestly, ill say keep reaching out daily and don’t give up

Do you have a graduate career center? Maybe ask them if they can help connect you with alumni in your field.

They should have an idea of who would be receptive to you reaching out.

Seeking advice on career paths within tech after bizops. Currently in bizops and former consultant, and while the work is fine I’ve realized that bizops feels similar to consulting and in the long term I’m looking for a role that has more ownership and ideally more analytical. Does anyone have any advice/anecdotes on other roles that may be suitable, and what it takes to get there? Thank you!
