Hi folks, I'm interviewing for a role with a B4 in the Sustainability reporting & assurance division.
My ultimate goal is to develop my career into sustainability topics but do not want to be a CPA. The goal is more to later work into Sustainable roles in industry.

Would you say that this type of reporting roles are too accounting and would stick me into a box?

Does MBB give you a good variety of projects (both in function and industry), and did that help you discover what you want to specialize in (either in consulting or in an industry job)?
