Those who go tend to be from strategy and consulting dte, aka consulting hires and strategy hires. Have not seen someone in technology function go into MBB to do consulting or strategy work, maybe go do digital got chance.

Best way is to go do a good MBA, open doors for you Liao

To the OP, yes it’s entirely possible to switch from Tech to Consulting. You just need to find roles that are more consulting focused and more importantly, you need someone that is willing to give you a chance.

For Strategy wise, it’s WAYYYY harder because there is a cap to the headcount in each project. You are better off finding a strategy role outside of the company imo.
To correct you, the interview for consulting isn’t just behavioural questions lmao. Clearly never to been one and you’re not even a consulting analyst/consultant/manager etc, how do you even share with the op. Just speak to any of the current consulting hires, the process is different than those mass hired in as technology analyst (business and integration arch or delivery roles).

If it’s just behavioural questions so easy, I should see everyone getting an offer there lmao. Know that we’re speaking as those who are hired this year or well maybe end of last year onwards. Our manager is the MD for strategy and consulting, you expect someone holding this role with vast experience and having interviewed many to give a simple interview? Think again.

Troll don’t give fake news.

We don’t lump strategy and consulting together lmao, just FYI, now strategy and consulting functions are merged tgt under one DTE. Can’t believe you don’t know this, this combination is already present since 2021.

Goes to show you aren’t even in the company, still expect to give “advice”.

It’s for consulting hires can do strategy roles in projects and strategy hires can do consulting roles in projects. But not for tech or other functions to take on strategy or consulting roles in project.

This is a fact. And no, consulting interviews aren’t just behavioural interviews, think twice before speaking. This is the dumbest sentence I’ve heard or seen thus far.

Consulting wannabe stop being a troll and spreading false news.

To the op, why do you want to do consulting or strategy work? Your interest or the name itself? Do you know what entails as part of consulting or strategy work? You may have a chance trying to go into consulting, but strategy well it’s almost impossible. Even if they headcount and want to bring in people, the first audience to consider would be consulting analysts to managers from the same Strategy and Consulting DTE (strategy and consulting are merged tgt in a dte, not separate as what this troll is saying). You may need to think about the reasons why you want to switch out of technology, especially assuming you have good amount of experience in tech.

Will be happy to discuss more on this, but not with trolls spreading fake news.

Is it bad to be on a project that’s 2 years long and have been extending multiple times?

LMAO. Sure preach all you want. How many of the consulting analysts have to do a case interview to get in? So far I haven’t heard of any.

I’m part of S&C and Idk whether you’re delusional or what. Yeah they merged strat and consulting together but they do very different things. Strategy peeps are more focused on the high level roadmap, company vision in the next 5 years and some financial forecast to justify the ROI of their strategy. Consulting analysts are more focused on understanding business processes and identifying the gaps/inefficiencies in them. They will then do market research to recommend a solution to reengineer the process. There can be overlaps between the 2 and no one is stopping consulting folks to take on strategy roles. However, do note that chances like this are rare. Let’s not forget that strategy folks are paid higher + are not part of TAP. So how are strat folks the same as consulting folks?

No one here is saying consulting hires got to do case interview, LMAO. We’re saying that it’s harder to get an offer for consulting role as compared to tech roles where the latter is mass hired in so easier to get an offer. Everyone who applied for Accenture knows this, many apply wanting to get placed in consulting but ends up being offered tech. Even if not everyone have a case interview in their interview rounds, many went for 2-3 interviews with the strategy and consulting MD. You can’t be expecting an interview who’s a MD level and experience in consulting to give simple “behavourial interviews right”?
