Advice on Consulting exit CV

Hi,

I have been at a Big 4 Consulting firm for 4 years, had a great time but now ready to move into industry to an operational/strategy/special projects role.

I have just dug out my graduate CV and I am quite lost at how to update it - and even more lost at knowing where to go for help. I have spent hours googling and even searching WSO forums but I could not find very helpful info on what a Consulting exit CV should look like and what it should include. All I find is about how to get into Consulting, not how to get out. My cluelessness when it comes to knowing how to format my CV and what to include on it scares me when I think about the wealth of information I had in my head when doing my graduate applications.

Could you guys please point me in the right direction? Any relevant forum posts, websites, blogs, anything?

Many thanks,
ksanyee
