I’ve spent 9+ years in FMCG (PepsiCo, Unilever) and impact consulting across India, France and the UK, and hold a dual MBA from IIM Kozhikode (‘15) and HEC Paris (‘23). On paper it looks neat. Behind it: - Working across 3 countries, each with its own culture, language and job market - A bold pivot into impact consulting in Paris that wasn’t quite the fit I’d hoped for - A London job search where I learnt to cold-call, network and sell myself, about 185 times over - Choosing a role a few rungs below my CV Most of what I coach on, I learnt the hard way.
