Hello - hope everyone is having a great weekend. I'm looking into risk assurance opportunities at Meta, especially Application Manager, Controls (min 5 YOE) and Manager, Compliance (min 12 YOE). I am a Senior Manager with 9 years of IT risks assurance experience. Does anyone have any thought on which position I should apply? If anyone currently at Meta could share your experience, that would also help. If anyone is open to providing referrals, I could provide my background. Facebook (Meta)

Welcome to Deloitte OP! Consulting is very fast-paced and can have a learning curve. Some tips:
1. Find both a coach (or other senior mentor if your coach isn’t great) who you can ask big career questions and a peer mentor/friend who you can ask silly questions (where to submit time sheets, where to find template slides, how to navigate the firm, etc.)
2. Get very good at core consulting skills. This means making ppt slides, working in Excel, client communication, anticipating client needs.
3. Find a community of former clinicians who have also made that jump. Deloitte has one and they can be a great community of people with similar experiences and a sense of good projects/accounts to hop on.
4. Listen and learn. Nobody expects you to be perfect day one. But ask questions if you genuinely don’t understand something, set up regular check-ins with your project lead, solicit feedback, and show a willingness to grow and improve.
5. Don’t be disheartened if your first project isn’t perfect or your first reviews aren’t stellar. Keep learning, growing, and moving forward. It gets easier over time and before you know it, you’ll be a pro consultant :)
Thank you, this was extremely insightful and more than I could have hoped from an answer :)
