I believe what you are asking is that how to frame your CV and position your answers when interviewing with a MBB, while currently you're with a specialist firm. My answer would be focus on the skillset you have acquired in your current role, and forget about the sector.
MBB consulting is all about problem solving, stakeholder management, working as part of teams etc - these core skillsets, i am sure you would have learnt in your current role as well. It is about how to position them in interviews/in your CV.
Feel free to reach out for further support in positioning yourself for MBBs.
Hello!
I believe you forgot the question, feel free to edit :)
Cheers!
Hi there,
Do you have a specific question?
If you're wondering whether you can join MBB as a specialist and move into generalist, you generally cannot and it would be ill-advised (it's a backwards move).
If you're wondering whether you can go from specialized consulting (i.e. working at an IT Consulting firm) into a generalist consulting firm, you absolutely can. In fact, I myself did so!
Hope this answers the question you had!
