I do public sector consulting. Referred to work at Accenture AFS. After four years, I'm making 90K at North Highland. Would I make better at Accenture? Looking at the Senior Federal Analyst position.

I would definitely pursue a consultant role. Most senior analysts are usually a year or two out of undergrad. To make 90, you would probably need to be at consultant level

Thanks for the input. I have been in consulting for four years now, all public sector work so I'm definitely hoping that is considered! I am shooting for a lateral move and no pay reduction if at all possible. Wasn't sure if I would have to accept a downgrade in either in return for having a bigger name than North Highland on my resume. But of course, a pay increase would be great. Especially if I'm living in a pricey area like DC

Could get a 25-30% bump here @ senior consultant level

You know, I have not heard very much about guidehouse until recently, actually as a was doing some Accenture research and saw that the two did a partnership. I will look into your company more. Thank you!

Yes but what Location?

I'm referred for the DC position. I did indicate I'm willing to be considered for other locations as well.

Push for consultant not senior analyst. Senior analyst could be anywhere between 80-90k. Consultant you could be easily 110k

I already applied to the Federal Senior Analyst through my referral. Do you think in the interview process it will be possible to discuss my potential for a consultant role?
