I think it's about time I finally update my LinkedIn with my consulting experience (it's been a couple of years since I've last updated it). Any tips on listing my experience as an analyst, senior analyst, and consultant? E.g. should I explain generally what the project was AND add my responsibilities, or just the latter? Thanks in advance!

General guidance is a bullet/sentence for a few of the projects you want to highlight. Within each one liner, capture general scope of the project (I.e. “helped a global software company redefine the structure of its 2000 person corporate finance team”), and what you did (I.e. “by leading interviews with executives across the finance team, analyzing the interview outputs, and modeling the BU’s new org design.”)

This is incredibly helpful. Thank you so much! Just to make sure I'm understanding, you're saying it should be just one bullet/sentence per project? What if I had a lot of different responsibilities on one project? Like interviewing stakeholders, gathering requirements, creating campaigns, managing team members, etc. Does it make sense to make this multiple sentences/bullets? Or should it be more generalized and get to the "so what" more quickly?
