I came from industry. The key is to continue applying everywhere and network. Don’t be afraid to reach out to people. Also you’re not going to start in strategy. Be ready to take a role more suited to your current role. Spend a year or two gathering consulting skills and make your way to strategy. You didn’t go to a target school and you’re not in the industry figure out a plan and work toward your goal
