Hey guys,
Needed some help in making a decision. I primarily come from an oil gas background, but have been in management consulting for a year.
Having been there for a year, I'm looking to move and have two options.
1) Major mining firm (think Rio Tinto, BHP etc) in their commercial strategy dept 2) Oil and gas consulting (majority of their work is on the commercial side mostly doing commodities price forecasting, occasional projects for market entry)
I'm quite torn between the two options. I feel like joining the mining company will lock me down in mining forever, but at the same time, I don't know what the exit opps of oil and gas consulting are.
Anyone know of the exit opps? Any advice?
Anyone?
Are you post-MBA or pre-MBA? If you're pre-MBA I would go with the best name possible (which sounds like it's the mining co.) since you can rerecruit through an MBA into a different field if you find yourself stuck.
O&G will bottleneck you in O&G. Unfortunately, resource based companies tend to bottleneck people in those sectors due to the very specific nature of the work.
Not sure what commercial strategy is, but if you're referring to corporate strategy - that will allow you to transition to a different corp. strategy role, and hopefully in a different sector if you move quickly enough.
If you're currently in management consulting, and you're not too happy with your options, what's preventing you from continuing in consulting right now?
