How much is internal consulting experience valued (in industry) if I wanted to make a switch over to consulting? Would it count as ‘consulting experience’? Trying to understand how I brand myself in the interviews.

yeah I think if you have specific projects you can reference it would be looked at as favorable. depending on what you’re going for, I don’t know if it can 100% be transferable to your level, meaning if you’re a manager in industry and performed a few internal consulting projects, that you’d be necessarily a good fit to be a manager in consulting. Depends on a lot, but in some cases might have to go down a level.

It counts. I moved over and it’s the same. Differences are that in external you dont get to see the full life of the project, and in internal your clients are all around u and can track u down better

Hi Guys,

I am a ReactJS developer (frontend) with 3.8 years of experience. I currently switched my company but they don't have an opening for ReactJS and kept me on a bench for 3 months and they are telling me now to learn AEM technology and work on the AEM project for now.
They hired me for a package of 16 LPA.
So my questions are is it a good technology to learn? Should I say yes and have a career in it?
Will I get the same package like ReactJS or less? What is future if compared with React?

So I recently accepted a 12 month contract-hire position at a much larger company. Pay is more than 50% of my salary, and benefits/401k is covered by the recruiting agency. I was confident in my now manager, who told me directly this will become a permanent role. However, i’m nervous about where the economy is going to be within the next year, and after getting a few linked in messages to interview for full time positions, I’m starting to second guess myself. Thoughts? Advice?
