How many here get staffed on international (exclude Canada/Mexico) cases? Or have done stints abroad? How hard is it at your firm? IMO, most firms do a terrible job of making this happen.

Not really staffed but I was sent to over 10 countries to train people for a global client multiple times last few months. I think this one boils down to the relationship you build for global projects. For PwC at least, there is a group that handles staff interested in international assignments (Forgot the name). Otherwise, I'll be in the middle of Kentucky, which I was last week. Lol

I'm in M&A - so far every other project has required at least some international travel due to nature of MNC clients.

It's a cost thing. If your firm is global they don't have to fly you business class over if they already have people on the ground. That being said, get u.s. based companies looking to close intl ops

A friend @ACN left because she was being flown around the world every couple of weeks to train people I think workday implementation. The previous year she was in Detroit the whole time. I thought that was worse.

I tend to do international travel every couple of months.

I've been able to work internationally 4 times in the past year

I started learning last summer (right after graduating from college). I am self-taught and I usually get a round in once a week. I never play with others as I have no golf buddies and I am pretty scared to join strangers as I still am pretty early in the learning phase. I can break 90 consistently but never got below 82. Any suggestions on finding golf buddies to make my rounds more fun?

People joining TCS at Senior Consultant designation with 12 years exp, with no MBA degree or even from with exceptional experience in niche technologies is truth these days.

Existing employees with 20 years exp working on presales consulting, winning millions of dollars of projects in RFPs, delivering multi million dollar assignments are still not getting promoted and paid in peanuts

Is there any advice for networking into projects when you don’t know many people at the firm yet? I always to help on BD work when I’m on the bench, but it never turns into any billable work. Every time I have talked to a partner/senior manager I was told I don’t have the skill set they’re looking for, but I don’t know how to build up from there. Feeing very lost but I want to improve my approach.
