Why TA? I would go for the application architect cert and aggressively network for consulting roles. Taking minor volunteer roles on projects can also build the skill set.

To be honest though TA requires at least 6-8 years experience if you try to join the mothership.

Even without LinkedIn, I see a lot of people younger than me in much better roles. They started off with relevant jobs right out of college.

I’m constantly comparing myself to others who are younger than me.

Questions about job hopping-
My average tenure at a company is ~1.5 years (with ~11 YOE), but each jump I've made has yielded progressive/tangible career growth.

I'm concerned after my most recent jump (went from a product director to a head of product position at a different, smaller company after only a year) that I've kind of poisoned future career prospects at larger companies.

Any insights on whether this type of job hopping is a complete deal breaker for potential HMs?

Capgemini has verbally promised me 9 LPA but the offer is yet to be released.

I am more inclined towards joining Deloitte India as it is a bigger position than Capgemini.

Am I on the right track?
