@CD1 I’m beginning to feel like I’m more interested in the research, finding trends and translating that to opportunities of a project. I’m getting tired of throwing ideas against a wall to see if they stick. I like the science aspect to strategy.

You can look into creative strategist roles, the blend the two. I believe most are client side though.

Can I ask why? I had a partner that did this and I always thought it was my fault.

Maybe he had a bad experience with me that turned him off creative or something.

I can really use some direction. My background, I've worked 2 years in strategy and am currently coming off an exhausting year 2 in investment banking. I didn't particularly enjoy either role and am not interested in moving over to the buy-side or some monotonous FP&A role. Everybody says there's exit-ops aplenty, but I find myself with less options and even more picky than I did as an ambitious T2 undergrad student. Where do I go from here?
