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

What type of strategy work did you do?

I think I'm on the right track but figured some awesome fishies here could take me to the next level 🧸🧸

Any other hiring managers feeling like all of your candidates are asking for more money last minute just to see how far they can go? Like if we say the range is 110-130K, they say they’re looking for 135K, you offer 135K and then they say they won’t take the job for less than 150? Not even with competing offers. It’s hard for me to stay excited about wanting to work with someone when they do that. What a waste of everyone’s time.
