How to get a Job in Technology Consulting: Application Strategy | CAREER COACHING WITH CHRISTINE

Listen to the new podcast episode here: https://linktr.ee/christinepodcast

I worked with Ivan on a job application strategy to enter into technology consulting! Sometimes pivoting in isn’t that hard if you think about the important and relevant skills needed and pull it from everywhere, not just your work experience! We also spoke about how to stand out by networking (and some juicy tips using Linkedin), as well as the interview process and how to prepare! I’ve covered in previous episodes about case interviews and my YouTube channel also has a lot of resources on that! Check out PrepLounge as well!

Our Jobs after the COVID-19 Pandemic: Consulting and Tech Jobs (including our Thai Town NYC Trip!)

We wanted to talk about this topic so many of you have asked me about and that’s how is life after the pandemic in the world of consulting! In this video, I brought my friend Derek Mei, who is in UX design at a tech startup as well as my boyfriend, Addison Chen, who is also a technology consultant at Accenture much like myself! We also explored Thai Town in the beginning before we decided to record this video at the park for a change of scenery from my other sit-down videos!

My true authentic self

Let me tell you a secret! I actually hate taking photos of myself which is why I keep using old photos, but I know I really should try to show more of myself here to let people know who I am! The irony when I take photos of myself for YouTube thumbnails. 😹

But let’s be real, I don’t actually look like this on a normal day because I only wear makeup for my YouTube videos! https://youtube.com/c/ChristineWong This is actually a rare moment I even wore makeup going outside! I mostly wear makeup if I’m filming and I happened to wear makeup this particular day because I was filming a weekend in my life. 😂

But I have to say my brows have always been lacking and I was born with super sparse brows and I also included a photo with absolutely no makeup. I’ve had micropigmentation done 3 years ago, so my brows are really catfishing you. 😂😂😂

Do you show your true self? Do you wear makeup? Honestly, while I’m all about natural beauty (let’s be real, it’s because I’m lazy and suck at makeup), I also believe in creative and personal expression, so if you love a full face of makeup, go for it! The most I do is really my brows before I did micropigmentation, but what are you insecure about? Do you embrace it or do you fight it?

EVERYTHING About Smart Business NFC Cards: FULL REVIEW & UNBOXING of OVOU CARD

This is EVERYTHING you need to know about Smart Business NFC Cards! I did a FULL review and UNBOXING of the Ovou Card. From the purchasing process to the unboxing to even the setup and test run, I did the whole thing. I got into this because I was so fascinated over NFC Smart Business Cards when I came across them during an Instagram Ad! I used to be so excited to get my own business card because I thought it would make me legit, and then I realized how unreasonable they were when I changed job titles or wanted to promote something new. So I reached out to a bunch of these NFC smart business card companies, and Ovou responded! Thank you Ovou for sponsoring this video!

Joshua Tree Day 5 & 6: Salvation Mountain, Bombay Beach, Saltan Sea, Palm Springs, Going Home!

Last Vlog of the trip! I miss us already!

My friends and I went to Joshua Tree in August, and it was an experience I never would have imagined. Hiking, bonfires, the struggles, the highs, the stories, and the inside jokes, this trip brought us together like family. Even looking back, it seems surreal, and even looking at these photos, it looks like I’m looking at someone else.

3-4 groups that have never met together as a whole came together and we built bonds we never expected. Here’s to Winter 2022!

In this particular vlog, we branched off and checked out Salvation Mountain, Bombay Beach, Saltan Sea, and Palm Springs! Since we’re a few groups that came together and bonded as BLOOD, we even bought matching outfits and surprised the other group that stayed back at the Joshua Tree airbnb and their reaction was priceless!

My Consulting Interview Process

Consulting recruiting season is here! Around this time four years ago was when I had my first round of interviews! Here was my process when pursuing the TDP at Accenture!

I do want to note that a lot can happen in four years. We even had the covid-19 pandemic! This will greatly change how firms approach the recruiting process to adapt and improve!

How was your process? What are you most scared of within the process? Let me know down below in the comments!

I also did make a video recently on how to prepare and succeed in the consulting recruitment process, so make sure to check for that on my YouTube channel!
