pieces, summarising a survey of consultants dream
jobs: as early as 2015, we asked you to rank your top
exit destinations. Back then, your dream industry was
Private Equity, followed closely by Start-up. A lot
has happened since that poll. Movemeon has grown,
attracting more great employers and more amazing
candidates. This means that more jobs have been
posted and more applications have been made, giving
us an excellent opportunity to check whether 2015s
preferences are reflected in 2016s behaviour.

that are available are extremely popular. Consultants
from all over the world wanted to move to jobs based
there, as well as in Switzerland, Singapore and the
Netherlands.
