Engineering Role to Management Consulting – Career Switch

To evaluate fit for a Management Consulting Career, Subscribe to F1GMAT's Career Planning Service

I get a lot of similar questions on feasibility in F1GMAT’s Career Planning Service. One of the common questions I get from applicants in core engineering roles in industries like Oil & Gas, Electronics, Automobile, and Infrastructure is whether it’s feasible to switch to Management Consulting.

Although feasibility depends on each applicant’s experience and career path, there are 3 factors to consider:

1) Age
2) Exposure
3) Myth Around Extraversion
