When it comes to YOE in regard to salary, does it count if it’s not in consulting, but contributes to the skills required in the particular consulting role? (E.g., was an intelligence analyst, consulting role requires analyzing data and deriving insights, etc.)

Honestly - nope. If year's of experience doesn't directly relate to the job you're interviewing for, doesn't count.

If you're more junior, it can. For example, if they're looking for a demand planner with 3 years of experience and you have one, plus another two years of something else.

As you get more senior, the roles have more breadth to them, so a few years of broader experience is can be counted towards years of experience.

Isn't quite fair, but it's life.

Not understanding how you see them as similar.

If you look at a demand planning role, having seen a few years of demand patterns (for example, impact of seasonality over several years) is pretty important. A single year of experience in the role wouldn't fit a 3 years of experience.

Someone who has spent three years in another role and gained supervisory experience, then spends 4 years as a demand planner, they can then talk about 7 years of work experience as they position themselves for a planning manager role.

No. I went from 4 years of industry to consulting and basically started as a new grad even though the experience was relevant. I stayed in consulting for 6 years and left to tech for a 100% raise.
