HOW TO BECOME A TECHNOLOGY CONSULTANT | Skills and Certifications

I am now a tech consultant of two years at Accenture specializing in Workday Financials software implementations. On the side, I helped students from my alma mater, Boston University, in career skills and tech consulting, but now I’m casting the net wider! I now have a YouTube channel that teaches everyone the career of tech consulting (way too few resources on this career!) and a lot of career skills I think that are taken for granted like this one!

In this video, I go over EXACTLY what you need to become a technology consultant. This is a part of a two-part series with this going over the skills and certifications you need. Part one which covered education and experience came out on Monday! Though the video goes over what you need to do to become a technology consultant, don’t be discouraged as I provide my tips and strategies on how you can pivot into the career starting from almost any background today!

Education and Experience:

My channel focuses on professional development but I also highlight my experience, lifestyle, and insights into a career in technology consulting in hopes to encourage more women to consider this amazing career – especially in STEM!

Any questions at all about the tips I provided or about Accenture or technology consulting, please let me know!

HOW TO BECOME A TECHNOLOGY CONSULTANT | Education and Experience

I received an overwhelming response of interest from everyone on technology consulting, so I’m doubling down on content to provide more resources for you where I’m uploading TWICE a week (Mondays and Thursdays)! Especially when consulting companies like Accenture hire for college full time hires in September, I thought this would be perfect timing. If you’re already in the workforce, they hire all year long (even now during COVID)!

Why YOU should be a TECHNOLOGY CONSULTANT

I am finally releasing video on why YOU should consider becoming a technology consultant! I am currently a technology consultant at Accenture in NYC for about two years now, and SO MANY ask what exactly do I do and if tech consulting (or consulting) is a good path for them. Even my parents still ask me to this day, so I’m literally sending them this video! This video will go over what exactly is tech consulting, why companies need tech consultants (this question baffles my parents), skills needed, and pros and cons. It’s a long video, but I go in depth so it should answer all your questions!

If you have any further questions or you’re interested in tech consulting or Accenture, please let me know! In addition, my channel caters mostly to college students and young adults in their 20s that focus on professional development, personal development, consulting, personal finance and NYC lifestyle, so if you’re interested in this, please consider subscribing!
