Hi Vedika. You can definitely switch into consulting roles. If you want to prepare for management consulting roles. Get good with solving cases and guesstimates and all this you can get at Seekho through subscribing to the premium select memberships or their youtube channels. To get good at cases, you need to solve cases from case books like Case interviews, and Case in point. Other than that for the resume, you need a certain spike from your academics, technical knowledge, sports, or extracurricular activities.

I agree with Anirudh. Other than what's mentioned, do make it a point to start prepping for the interview rounds by regularly practising guesstimates and cases which is what's mainly asked in the interview rounds of most Consulting firms. Start networking with professionals from your dream consulting firms, ask for referrals and keep a close eye on any off campus opportunities.

For getting in a Consulting Firm through off-campus recruitment drives- Consulting Firms do hire via on-campus placement drives is true but they only hire via on-campus placement drives is not. Mostly all of the consulting firms do also have off-campus recruitment drives/lateral hiring going on throughout the year. For the same, keep an eye on the LinkedIn job portal, their career pages and LinkedIn posts by the employees at these firms. One thing that could help here is tapping people for referrals! Since consulting is more of a 'Generalist's Job', experience in any and every industry would be relevant and in fact, diverse industry expertise is always better for the firm! Besides, it is never too late. We, at Seekho, are here to help you on your journey. :)
