Well, that depends on what you define as interesting. Making a positive impact on the world? Solving the COVID crisis? Fast growing? Being disrupted by digitization? High average salary?

I guess you get the jist of this: It's impossible to compare industries if you don't define by what. And even then it's a highly subjective topic that only you can answer for yourself. (Sorry for being helpful here ;)

Hey there,

First priority should be an industry you'd be happy to work in. If you are interested solely in being at the frontier of something groundbreaking, there is no way around tech (e.g., health) or fintech (blockchain and crypto).

Hello!

I would try to pose the question another way -particularly knowing how the market is atm-.

In which industry would you fit best? Where can you bring more value to the table?

Hope it helps!

Cheers,

Hi,

personally, I wouldnt care too much about the industry that you are in but more about the function, responsibility, and reputation (qua employer brand name) you will have. Even unsexy industries in general (e.g. insurance) become all of a sudden quite nice for you (and the CV) if you work at a reputable firm with a lot of responsibility (this generally means being in charge of a lot of people or driving revenues in a noticeable way).

Best,
Denis

Thats a loaded question...every industry is exciting in its own way. The questions really are.. Which industry do you fit better? Where can you add the most value & enjoy yourself ?

Hi there!

This is a broad question and the effectiveness of the answers depends on your desires and aspirations.

Think of any industry of consulting and you will find both perks and disadvantages.

I agree with most of what is said above and I will add that you may face various industries directly and indirectly while working. The ultimate answer to this question depends on who you are.

Are you looking for a top management consulting firm with great reputation and experience? Are you interested in particular segment? You got to like the essence of the job and decide if you can adjust your lifestyle to it because any form of consulting consumes vast amount of time.

Hope you found answer to your question because solving a problem on such a large scale can be truly rewarding.

Let me know if I can be of any help to you!

Best,

This depends on your personal interests really. Some enjoy industries that are undergoing a radical transformation or have a positive social impact or involve a technical aspect.

Energy is especially interesting particularly in light of how legacy O&G players are transitioning to clean energy, are developing electric programmes, diversifying via M&A/CVC, buying EV charging infrastructure etc

Telecoms is interesting if working with clients in emerging markets as it centres heavily around growth strategy, as they deploy fibre / 4G/5G networks, build out their TV offerings, adapt to affordability constraints
