How to target consulting careers

EV-consulting hiring divides into (1) MBA-track consultant hires (campus + lateral from other strategy consulting), and (2) domain-expert hires (industry-experienced engineers brought in as specialists). For the domain-expert path: pair your industry experience with a DIYguru AICTE-approved EV credential via emobility.academy + thought-leadership writing on emobility.careers (we publish industry-expert profiles). Consulting practices increasingly prefer hybrid backgrounds (consultant + EV-domain) over pure-consultant-no-domain.
