Hi All!

I am currently working in India at Deloitte USI in their Strategy & Operations Consulting division. I have pursued my MBA from IIM-I and have 3 YOE in Consulting.
My husband's company has offered him.an opportunity at their London office.
I want to understand if I will be able to find job opportunities in Consulting in London? Does an MBA from an Indian b-school have value in London? If yes, how is the job market currently? Will I be able to get a job?
Your inputs will be very helpful!

In short term it is quite difficult as all Big4s are doing layoffs. And honestly MBA from Indian B-schools hold little value.
Focus on the tangible outcomes and skill sets from your previous experience.

I doubt that IIM’s brand value will land you a job. It is purely your skillset and experience which will help in a very very tough market. Internal transfers are the best options, but since a lot of job loss is been seen in past months I doubt that it can be done. Probably it can, if you ace in India and company doesn’t want you to exit. But, getting a new job will honestly be quite difficult. Please don’t get discouraged though. Make a move and try hard, you’ll get something but allow yourself 6 to 9 months to get the job you would want for yourself.
