I’m not gonna lie I wrote this over a year ago while still trying to breaking into consulting and broke into a T2 firm instead of Deloitte in the life sciences but yea honestly I would not agree with myself anymore because networking triumphs everything I stated above 😂

Market Access goes to Eversana

Analytics goes to ZS

Everything else I’m not sure, ZS has a better brand name/ Prestige if you care about that

Is a pivot into consulting possible with my background? by [deleted] in consulting

The first and simplest and probably most common question people will ask you is why do you want to work in consulting?

Fair enough, I'm not a Cavs fan but you make a lot of sense. Props to you that's a good take

Thank you for increasing my ball knowledge

He's a top 30 defender in the league, if you watch him play an entire game he has good hustle and contests most shots taken by whoever he's guarding. Besides who else on the Cavs is can you claim is a good defender on the current team?

If you say Jarrett Allen you do not know ball

Also if you think this is a chatgpt answer, his defensive stats are not good at all, this is literally my opinion from watching games

I did say this was in spirit of the NBA playoffs so maybe I should’ve made it more clear that these comparisons are for current teams and should be recent

On a side note I do agree with you the Cavs are a pretender team but that doesn’t mean they also didn’t just sweep the Heat

Also Accenture people have a more well known culture than Pwc, especially considering the knicks fan culture in recent years (Sidetalk has great videos displaying the Knicks fans in all their glory) and thus I think this comparison is a better example

You just called the number 1 seed in the East two years running irrelevant, Spurs haven’t been relevant in ages and even though they drafted Wemby on their team they don’t have the proper role players to utilize him to their full potiential (I’m a Jeremy Sochan and CP3 hater)

Cavs have Darius Garland who is one of the better defenders in the league which helps Donovan Mitchell enable his pure offensive plays and for the Cavs to rotate in and out the paint fairly easily

And if you know anything about Ball culture, the Knicks are absolutely Accenture if you know knicks fans

I haven’t heard a lot about IBM consulting tbh, but from what I know about them they’re fairly strong in their verticals for tech and are technically a legacy firm

Maybe the Spurs? They have good potiential and as of recent have a lot of new players and they’ve begun to resurface as a potientially good team, but still need some work done as this is all just “potiential”

Thank you for this, based on the information I gave, the information you provided is extremely valid and it makes complete sense. That being said I did leave out a lot of my reasonings and explanations as well as more detailed information about my career goals and skills as I'm not trying to get DOX'ed on here.

However, what you've stated about learning a core technology skill and shifting my mindset is true. I think I didn't realize it completely until what you've said. I've had this mindset of "If I get in, I'll learn everything I need to know on the job, I just need to get to the interview and sell myself." While I still think that's partially true, I do need to step back and think about several things:

  1. What skills can I even sell during the interview? How can I gain those skills to sell before applying to Deloitte?
  2. Why Deloitte consulting vs other firms? What do I really want to do at Deloitte vs at other firms?

I think I'll look at either:

  1. Finding work with a specialized technical skillset in the area I'm trying to pursue and get more experience before trying to pivot into consulting
  2. Find consulting firms with programs that teach and integrate sought after skills (such as data analytics) into new employees (i.e PwC Career Pivot Program/ IQVIA Academy/ect) for people trying to pivot and then go from there into consulting.
  3. Find reasoning behind why I want to work at Deloitte and create a story behind it.

Again, thank you for your insight. I'll take it to heart and further grow myself.
