I have a PhD in physics and a lot of my current academic work involves "number crunching" - statistics, modelling, regression, etc.
Is that a relevant skill for a business consultant that I should strongly emphasize in my application?
On the one hand, it seems quite useful to me that when you receive a load of numerical data from your client, you are able to quickly process and draw meaningful conclusions from it on your own.
On the other hand, that might be an analyst's job and stressing my expertise on that field only shows the recruiter that I am applying for the wrong role?
Your comments on that matter would be extremely helpful to me.
