S21E23: TMT Consulting in 2025: The AI Reality Check + What Firms Want in Candidates
Manage episode 524714069 series 2661694
AI is everywhere in TMT — but in late 2025, the hype is fading and the real question is simple: what’s the ROI?
Rick Wilmot (ex-McKinsey) sits down with leaders from Bain (Ron Kermisch), Capgemini Invent (Karl Bjurstrom), Strategy& (Dan Hays), and Altman Solon (Gregor Eichler) to unpack what TMT clients want now — and what it takes to win offers in this space.
You’ll hear what’s changing across tech and telecom: the post-hype AI reality check, shifting talent strategy, telco capex monetization pressure, and the growing role of regulation in growth strategy.
The panel also gets practical on recruiting: what makes candidates stand out, how to show real depth in TMT, and how to start strong once you land the role.
