My experience is all over the place first 6 years of career: Internal audit, compliance for first two years, then PMO, transformation, accounting/finance for the rest, across all different industries. Interviewers/companies seemed to be turned off by that, which makes sense Bc I’m not super experienced in any one thing. Any tips in navigating this? I’ve been applying to other consulting roles in transformation.

I don’t think this is a downside at all - you’ve seen projects from all types of lenses. You can be a strategic advisor to a client not only from one angle but from multiple - phrase it with confidence this way in front of your interviewer. Not a one trick pony , which if your going into transformation helps a great deal as it’s a broader scope

Been at company many years and rebuilt dysfunctional team into high performers while also driving huge metrics and impact. Recently interviewed for elevated role and CEO congratulated me and told me I slayed it and he was proud of me. This is 2nd time I’ve applied for this job and found out yesterday my boss (not CEO) hired external. Don’t feel valued and I’m likely quitting without job. I’ve been through the ringer at this place/boss. Am I making a mistake for leaving without another job?
