Macro Investing Transition

Hi All,

I am a second-year Consultant at a major Restructuring firm. I have slowly realized this is not what I want to do long-term and am looking for a career switch.

Specifically, I would like my next steps to involve exposure to macro trends and deep/ thoughtful work on how to profit from those trends. I understand it may not be a direct path to that type of job.

What would you recommend in terms of next career steps? Should I attempt to make a direct jump to buyside? Is that even possible from RX Consulting? And if I switch to banking, what company/ industry-focus should I target?

Thanks in advance. I appreciate any thoughts.
