Want to move from IT infra presales(cloud, dc, network, dwp,network etc) to a core consulting role. But everwhere I keep getting rejected saying tht my profile is too IT inclined.
I am in the business of selling services and not actually a dc engineer or network sme, yet recruiters don't seem to understand.
How can I change my profile to consulting?
Any ideas or is anyone willing to refer.
I can take associate consultant/ senior analyst position also for the switch. Plz help a fellow fish out
