Hi there,

To get a transfer in general over time is medium difficulty. To get a transfer to a specific office soon is hard.

A few thoughts:

1) You have only been there 6 months. This really isn't long enough. You need to wait probably around a year before you even stand a chance.

2) You need to excel - if they know you're top quality, they'll be more willing to send you

3) You need to network - make sure to be in good favor with those who control your fate in Shanghai and those who are connected to London

4) You need to be patient - wait for the right roles/projects to be available - strike when the timing is right.

Good luck!

Hi there,

6 months is not enough for asking a transfer to another office. You should spend more than 1 year in the company.

After that, you may have a chance to transfer if you are a good consultant there.

Do you need any further help?

All the best,

Hello!

Getting a transfer requieres a lot of work and more of paperwork, but it´s plausible.

The critical thing is for the targeted office to "accept" you, for which you need a good value proposition for them (this depends on each firm, level, etc.)

Once you have this sorted out, they will indicate you how to proceed in terms of visa, etc.

Hope it helps!

Cheers,
