What's the best way to pivot to strategy consulting with 1.5 YOE (currently in transaction consulting at a big 4)? I haven't been able to find any staff-level positions on LinkedIn or company websites during the last few months.

In London is pretty normal to be hired as an "experienced hire - you will join as an Associate Consultant or Mid Associate Consultant depending on the firm. There will surely be some demotion but you can rise faster than peers out of uni.

A referral helps, but you still need to perform well in the case interviews. Reach out if OC&C is of interest in London, NY, or Boston!

Hello fellow fishes,
I'm 5 YOE in analytics, mainly CPG/Retail business understanding and solutioning with a touch of python.

I'm planning to enter in freelancing. What could be a potential stream and how to break through into that first project.

I'm an Indian holding bachelor's degree in electrical and electronics engineering from India and master of international marketing degree from a United States. Overall, I have 7+ years of work experience in sales and marketing. IELTS 6.5 now I wish to migrate into Canada with the PR. Since lot of candidates are in the pool, sadly it would take me nearly 12 to 18 months to get my Canadian PR. Can some one give me leads of job opening which is available back there in Canada to start my career.
