🐠 ies, how can one gain experience managing people when i don't have any direct reports? I got rejected by a position because of this, i was more than perfect for the position in every other way. What can i change about myself that makes me come off as a leader so i can get these kinds of positions?

Bad advice above. There's a lot you can do. Demonstrate leading others through projects and initiatives. Counsel and coach people. Build a sphere of influence among your peers and demonstrate how you can manage laterally and up while influencing others. People can report to you in many different forms and how you represent your experiences with others who are more Jr, your peers and your leaders all can help you justify that interview question.

Makes sense, thank you

Maybe volunteer activity could help, something where you will have to organize activity or reach out people for creating team.

It is not much, but is a start

Additional Posts in Consulting

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.
