Need career advice. Please! Worked several years at a T2 and focused on a specific industry. Joined a boutique. Realized I am bored by this industry. Ie no Industry exit, no interest in continuing doing consulting for this industry. Would like to work for supranational governmental organizations or as diplomat. Very long shot I know. Hence my question: Is there a consulting firm specializing on these kind of clients? Any other ideas how to make such a move (no overlap with my current work).

Are you having a quarter life career crisis? Why not just do consulting for a different industry?

Maybe or finally realized what I want to do in life and don’t care about 💰 anymore
