I was laid off earlier this year and now have offers in strategic finance and strategy consulting. I am thinking of taking the consulting role for a year until the banking market recovers. Would it be difficult to move back to IB in a year or so? I want to do IB but can’t afford to wait on the market to rebound.

Doesn’t sound like you have a choice to not accept.
