4. Interview
5. Accept the job
I got an offer as a management consultant at a mid tier consulting firm after one year of experience. I applied to work in the same industry as that was really the only experience I could leverage. I also mentioned in my interviews that I was ranked a top performer at my firm which shows I’m adaptable. I also applied to an entry level position, so I was basically starting over, but I didn’t really care because the salary bump was still 20%. Honestly, there isnt much correlation between the jobs, you just have to explain why you want to make the leap.
I did! I got into technology Strategy and Innovation and sometimes do buisness strategy. I worked at EY for 1 year mainly supporting compliance, IT Risk, and IA engagements for FSO. I had a background in engineering from my college and had a keen interest in another area/industry where they’re we’re hiring. Plus had grabbed a few certs and done internal networking and initiatives/google to help me in the interviews. Show enthusiasm and they’ll take you.
Are you referring to GT as big 5 in your op? Bold
GT is 1/5 the size of the smallest big 4 from a revenue perspective.
Grant Thornton is not "big 5" lol... That being said, the switch is not easy mainly because the skillsets are vastly different. You will need to leverage your network and your reason for your switch needs to be solid.
Noted- thanks for the explanation
