AI Consulting Career Clarity — 1:1 with Aakash

If you're a student wondering whether AI consulting is a path you can break into — or you're 2–6 years into a data/AI role and watching consultants get paid 3x for work you could do — this call is for you.

A decade across Mu Sigma, Morgan Stanley, Factspan, Synechron, and KIPI has shown me the same pattern: technical skill is no longer the moat. Everyone can train a model. What separates the people who land consulting roles or high-leverage client work is the commercial layer — scoping, pricing, positioning, client conversations.

That's what nobody teaches, and that's what we'll map on this call.

We'll work through:

• Where you actually are vs. where the market is hiring
• Whether AI consulting fits your profile (honest read — sometimes it doesn't)
• The 2–3 specific moves that compound over the next 6 months
• A look at your CV, portfolio, or LinkedIn if you bring them

You'll leave with a written next step, not motivation.

If IntelliBridge is the right next move for you, I'll say so. If a different path fits better, I'll say that too.
