2yr in audit PwC + 2yr in strategy&ops consulting. How can I switch to PE?

Thanks,
Pepe

Do you mind sharing how did you manage to switch from audit to strategy consulting? I feel like that's really rare

Applying a lot, preparing business cases, good selection processes I guess. Undergraduate from tier 1 university + master in AI applied to finance was a plus.

I’m starting to get staffed in more CD-level roles and floundering…I need creative director bootcamp. I don’t know how to ask the right questions, develop a creative process, structure a team, or even trust my own judgement on creative anymore. I’ve learned a bit from other CDs but they tend to be so high-level their skillsets aren’t as applicable since I still get in the weeds as an ACD. How can I learn this stuff without asking my manager for help every time I have to lead a team?
