What types of industry roles at FAANG or tech realistically would interview me?

3 YOE consulting at a big 4. Projects include data science, data analytics/visualization, and digital marketing

T20 undergrad and well versed in the typical data science toolkit (applied math degree, strong understanding of ML and statistics, some programming experience, python, r, etc.)

I was thinking of trying for decision scientist/data scientist/bizops/BI roles but was curious where other people landed

Realistically, quite a few roles. Still will be very competitive so dont be discouraged in the process.

Honestly…probably 60% of tech at first blush is applicable. Note tech is a bit more accomplishment driven than prestige driven when compared to say consulting and finance

Hi all, I’m looking to learn about how one can transition from PwC AC to PwC India.
I joined PwC AC Bangalore as a fresher and have been working here for 13 months.
I was randomly assigned to SAP, but I’ve realised I really want to move away from this and move towards what I originally planned on pursuing i.e. data analysis, I was already well versed in ML and DL with python.
If anyone has made a similar transition, it would be great if you could help me understand how do I go about this.
