Looking to pivot into healthcare consulting. I come from a MHA background with a two year Administrative Fellowship following it. Any experience breaking into one of the top consulting firms with this type of background?

Get some Ops experience for 2 years and then you’d be a good fit at any of the big consulting firms.

one thing is to update your resume properly and just apply! you don’t need much experince to break into consulting and an MHA will be super beneficial

Agree - Update Resume and apply - Worst case scenario - you make connections that you can stay in contact with as you gain more experience!

You’ll probably come in at the same level as MHAs right from target schools. But just apply.
