Realistically. Cognizant to MBB is tough. Go slow and aim for something like IQVIA/ZS first.

This - not that hard to pivot from ZS to MBB (at least in Europe). Most people I know who wanted to do that, managed to achieve this on all typical MBB levels - from analyst to EM.

LEK does a lot of that and I see a few formers here

Be very sure you want to do that type of consulting. I did it and it’s so boring. Also very easy to get pigeonholed. And, from Cognizant ? You might be best of just finding a partner within that company and working on their projects ? No one will look at Cognizant with any favour … they are an Indian IT outsourcer right ? Might even be worth joining industry for a bit with a better life science brand

Why did you find it boring? Just curious. I was in research for a few years, so consulting is still relatively new
