I just started a new job search after layoff from Accenture Strategy. I have 4 years strategy experience in telco (acn) and 1 year management experience at federal clients (deloitte). I've been applying to a lot. Firms like Oliver Wyman, Slalom, Pwc etc. Just wondering if anyone knows which firms are particularly hiring right now? Perhaps something more boutique and under the radar even? I'm not a fancy person with titles. Just want to make my empower proud! Any advice appreciated ❤️

Look at very small boutiques. The small shops that are in the 150-300 consultants range seem the be hiring like crazy. For example I never heard of Elixirr until several top performers left to go there.

Thanks for the tip!

What kind of work do you specialize in within the telco industry?

I didn't get particularly specialized. I was certainly in a lot testing pillars on big transformation programs but I was always in a strategy role within that. I was never executing tests etc. I was creating roadmaps for what the testing orgs should do and look like. I will keep doing that if it's where the money is but lord help me get out of that haha. I had a really cool gtm project involving autonomous vehicles and robotics. My brain was so useful in that innovation role. Design thinking, ideation, gtm, business case. It was my shortest project but my best performance

Asking for a friend:

Confluent is a lucrative product to sell and has established SDR reps so there’s a good blend of inbound and outbound sales. Thoughtspot is more of a startup culture where most of the sales comes from outbound and it’s a tougher sell.
