Usually headhunters should be reaching out to you. If that’s not the case, go ahead and ping a few headhunters yourself.

@D1 consulting to PE is not the strongest pipeline out there, which is why usually only MBB folks get reached out. But it’s okay, you can still reach out to HH’s yourself :)

@OP good luck with your job hunt!

Is it a sales oriented role, is P & L an integral part of being an Engagement Manager with AWS?
Any inputs will be much appreciated.

Hello!
I was wondering what kind of contractual or other barriers I might face if I apply for one of the big 4 while working on a project with them in my current company.
I am not too involved in the project but I was in a few meetings and went on a field trip with them as well.
The position that I am applying for is in a different team and city.
Will this considered “poaching” if the consulting firm hires me? Would they need to talk to my current employer?

Reports are that the average tenure of people in top consulting firms is 2.4 years. Interesting how the industry is even shorter. Thoughts?

I’ve been proposed an exit as Product Owner at a real company, not a consulting one. Staff seems nice, good culture, good salary (less than consulting but well), BUT I would have to move countries for that job and start a new life.

I’ve also been proposed a Manager position at a consulting company in my home city, with potential of bigger salary thanks to bonuses. Culture seems good... But I’m sure it’s gonna be a hell lot of work.
