Depends on your skillset, but I feel you. While I’m seeing plenty of folks land roles - sadly, my skillset got automated by AI and I needed to take a level down and restart in a new domain…

Trainings from ISACA and Udemy courses to get better at checking AI‑driven control outputs and making sure things stay accurate as more of controls use AI. I’m also leveling up my scripting skills and using GenAI to help tweak and improve those scripts. And I’ve been getting more comfortable with IaC and continuous compliance monitoring as most environments have either started implementing this / already implemented this. PMO is a dead end skill these days, so I just make sure I’m up-to-date with the latest AI facilitators

No entry level jobs require 12 yoe. By definition that would not be entry level.

Oh, the irony

Would you settle for a FIFA Peace Prize (i.e., Kirkland Signature)? 😆

Hi, just wondering how the staffing situation has been in strategy consulting in general? My sibling started a job in strategy in Silicon Valley 2 months ago after MBA. She has been on the bench for 2 months and was informed that there has been a shortage of jobs (within the job) and the amount of people on the bench is getting high. She has been under a lot of stress although she had many great networking calls with people. I wanted to help but can't identify what she can improve on.
