I am an analyst & I’m considering exit opps, but I’m not sure if I am allowed to share my client’s names with the project work I’ve done. They are big name clients that would certainly boost my resume

Give just enough info for them to narrow it down to a handful of places but not recognise which one exactly.

^this. Definitely no names. You probably signed something agreeing to confidentiality for your clients.

Great, thanks for the perspective everyone. I will safely assume no names for interviews as well.

No names.

I am a contrarian on this one. I wouldn't list client names on your LinkedIn or widely distributed resume. I wouldn't list them on a resume provided to a competitor if you're thinking of switching between consulting firms. But if you're going into industry and seriously considering a role I would list them on the resume you give to a recruiter.

I've been in consulting 15 years. This is my carefully considered opinion. You have to be sensitive to what you disclose and when but I don't think it's a bright line rule.
