I’ve applied to EY and Deloitte consultant development programs but have not gotten any response. Any advice on how to get into consulting with less than 1 year of experience?

Less than 1 year?
So you already have a job? Why are you leaving? Whats bad about it?

Usually your first job should be at least 1-2 years - get experience and than pivot. Also, don’t just apply and hope for the best. You need to network. find your school alumni on linkedin and connect.

Hi all -
Sorry for the long rant, but could use advice or just encouragement.

Got laid off for the first time in my career 3 weeks ago. I have 10 years of PM experience (mostly ecommerce & experimentation). I was fortunate in the past to have had recruiters scout me directly so this is the first time in over a decade that I am applying to everything that I’m qualified for, mostly qualified for, and way over qualified for with zero leads. Only 3 interviews thus far that didn’t go forward.
