Hey, can you clarify a bit please - are you entry level candidate or more senior? Typically when you enter at the most junior level (Analyst) you are default generalist and expected to learn on the job. In Accenture/Big 4 you might get soft aligned to an industry/industry group and function but this is not set in stone. You can move around go where the demand is. Speacialism comes with time and seniority.

Important to understand that:

1. You can be a generalist in terms of industry and function (operations, IT, HR etc)

2. Or you could be an industry generalist but focus on a function (e.g. supply chain)

3. or you could be a functional generalist and focus on an industry/industry group

There are so many ways to cut this and build your skills. Only time and your personal motivation will take you into the right zone. I started off as a Telco Network Engineer, moved to Deloitte to do Strategy Consulting and then to Accenture in Operations Consulting. I have always been in Telco, Media, Hi-Tech industry group. Hopefully that gives you an idea.

Hello!

The question is super wide, can you clarify? Which is the part that is giving you headaches?
