I started my salesforce career in 2018 and from then i have worked with Sales cloud / FSC/ core platform consulting / b2b. Is it better to pick a domain or just be a generic SF consultant with experiences implementing different clouds based on needs. Any insights ?

Any advice on how to switch from big 4 to tier 1 consulting firms like BCG and MCK?

One of the reasons I want to transition from industry to consulting (tier 1) is that I get frustrated when I have to collaborate with mediocre people. My assumption is that Tier 1 consulting firms hire really sharp people and if I can get in, I’ll be collaborating with folks on top of their game (not expecting much from clients). I’m aware there are personal aspects I need to work on like my mindset, patience etc etc, but I just get so frustrated with blatant stupidity.

I’m an MS Management Student graduating in June 2023. I applied to over 40 positions within the Big 4/MBB and even with extensive networking, I haven’t heard back from any really. I have an offer from a pretty well-known but less prestigious Consulting Firm, but I’m wondering what my chances even are of going Big 4/MBB if I’m not a campus hire. Will they even consider me for an experienced hire a year or two down the road if they showed no interest this time? Any advice welcome!

I’d want to make sure the clients stay through the transition, and I don’t want to join a dying industry. Thoughts and advice?
