I’ve been in a business development/account manager role in management consulting for nearly 10 years now. I’d love to switch over to Tech but almost every role at Google says I have to have previous tech experience. Any tips on how to get my foot in the door?

Strategy & Operations roles, as well as Go To Market, usually look for managent consultants (many from BCG like yourself). Some tech projects in the past help. If this Stratops-GTM roles are for business-marketing-finance teams, instead of product areas, then the tech experience requirements are usually lower

So I’m not a management consultant. I’ve always been in internal account management and business development roles at BCG and PwC focusing on their key priority accounts. I’ve only seen a couple of people in my type or role cross over to tech.

I’d second GTM - great org, oddly enough the Sales GTM org is really well put together.
