I'm going to graduate in April 2024. I was looking for an entry level Job as a risk consultant. I worked at EY for a year and half before I moved to do my masters. Everywhere I check, they ask for a lot more experience than I have right now. Any suggestions?

But consultant level is entry level? Why would they be looking for (more) experience?

I know it doesn't make sense and it's so hard to get a call back.

If you’re coming out of college apply through the college portal. That’s where most entry-level jobs are posted

I would like to transfer my career to Healthcare Data Analytics. I’m gaining my data analytics certification by the ending of November.

What can I say to recruiters that will WOW them or replace the fact I have no degree because that’s what most of these company’s require.
