Hey Guys,
I’m an energy professional (MSc Petroleum Eng), with 15 years of experience total.
I have a good management experience with Schlumberger. So things like increasing revenue, cutting cost, improving efficiency and processes is what I do all the time.
I’ve been trying to get into consulting for a long time but I don’t seem to have traction! I believe my resume is not bad (I’ve had it done professionally, and got a few managers in consulting have a look at it).
I continue in the comments.

What type of roles are you applying for. Your background sounds like an excellent profile for McKinsey Implementation where you don’t need an MBA (some do have it still). I’m part of MI and I’m happy to answer any questions you might have.
If you’re trying to enter as an EM or AP equivalent then I could see difficulty in that

Is it tough to get in without an MBA from a tier-1 B school?
Should I apply for jobs with less experience required (associate.. etc) or am I going to be considered too old for the that (40 years now)

Any advice is really appreciated.

like

Yes you can absolutely apply. I know people with 20 years of exp who are associates.

You just have to be comfortable with the fact that your manager may be 15 years junior. I am not saying you won't be but some do take issue with getting direction from a 25 year old when they are essentially an industry expert and have been in industry management positions.

Was previously working as an advisor growing a nice book and left to move 18hrs away to be close to family. I was pregnant and desperate to take what would move us and now I’m a planner working for FAs and I’m making $130k. Was fine at first while I got thru pregnancy but now I’m not happy & regret accepting the job and pay. I’m supporting others who are making 3-4times my salary. I have 10 yrs experience and CFP, often more than FAs I’m helping. Ask for more $$ or start over being an FA?

Junior Dev presents an issue they’re having. I hint to the fact that it may be framework related (this is a very simple fix). The questions they are asking seem out of context, so I ask if they have done any framework related research generally, as our entire application is built on top of this. They answered no, they have been here for months, and it’s not like this wasn’t in the job description. Am I missing something here? Trying to be helpful but stuff like this is frustrating.
