Is age a barrier to consulting?

Hi,

Most of the consultants don't have MBA, so don't worry about that.

Since you are applying for an expert role - age should not be a problem as well.

I would recommend to give it a try!

Hi there!

You would be hired as an expert and your experience and the way you communicate and sell this will be the key selection factors. Your education would have a second or third priority for the employer.

I suggest that you focus your application and interviews on your strengths (e.g. experience, range of industries where you have worked, type of projects where you have been involved, team leadership and so on) and don’t be worried with the lack of a MBA. Thinking an elegant way of getting out of a question about why you didn’t study one is good preparation, just in case the question comes up in an interview.

Good luck!

Best, Fernando
