You need to provide more context. What is your educational background? How much professional data science experience did you have prior to joining Accenture? What do you consider a “Senior Data Scientist” to be?

MS Statistics ..I have 15 years of work experience in industry and 1 year of data science experience before starting. Senior Data Scientist is defined by whatever a job posting says.

Take time

I’m graduating in December, with a background in environmental economics and policy. Consulting didn’t work out this cycle. Made it to final rounds for Bain and Kearney but in the end didn’t get an offer. I want to recoup and try again, but I’m worried that once I’m out of undergrad the door will be closed to starting in consulting.

What can I do to make this happen? I have friends and connections at Bain and Kearney and the other firms as well, but not sure if it’s feasible now.

I’ve been working in public accounting (audit) for a year and I don’t enjoy the work and don’t see myself in this position for much longer.

Any advice on where to start, what type of marketing positions I would align with, etc?

Coming to the realization that consulting is not for me (tech person) feeling angry that salaries at D will never be on pair with FANG and that leadership is not tech focused. For example you could be a soul contributor at fang making 240k and people at Deloitte wait 10+ years to earn that as Senior Managers because they need to climb the corporate ladder. It seems super clear cut to me now, if you want to make money in tech don’t join consulting firms. Am I wrong?
