Hello,
The actual trend is to be more and more specialized also as "generalist consultants". The most wanted are digital profiles and data analysts.

- Agile Coaches
- Big Data / Advanced Analytics Experts
Hello!
Digital and Data Anlytics are very hot topics atm, and before I left they were hiring almost weekly these profiles to staff projects asap.
You can have a look at the McK website in those 2 practices and see precisely what they are looking for.
Hope it helps!
Cheers,
