CTS it is for me!

I have decided to accept the offer from CTS. Today was the last day for acceptance of offers. Over the last couple of months I have had lengthy discussions with my friends here from CTS. I also spoke with several alums in CTS and Raja Banerjee from ISB. I am convinced that this is the best choice for me. There is a strong probability of getting placed overseas within the first six months.
I have communicated my location and vertical preference. I have given Pune, Bangalore & Chennai (in that order) as the top choices and Life Sciences as the vertical of choice.
In case you guys are wondering why Kolkata does not figure in my list, the reason is that Life Sciences practice is not in Kolkata. I could always get CSP (Customer Solutions Practice) but it doesn't excite me. Initially I was in a dilemma regarding whether to go for my preferred location or for my preferred vertical and in the end head won over heart. Furthermore, my wife could easily shift to any of the above mentioned 3 locations since IBM has a strong presence.
If you guys remember that I had mentioned in one of my very first posts that I wish to get into a business development role. Over the course of this one year there has been a change in my thought process. My understanding is that pure business development is a sales function and is typically the territory of people with strong sales background.
Personally I feel that I am more suited for a consulting role - hence the decision. The designation is Consultant (equivalent to Assistant Manager Business Development).
The typical responsibilities would involve leading pre-sales and post-sales support, driving solution identification & development, business analysis & requirements gathering for complex projects, lead or contribute as a key member in Consulting assignments etc.
CBC (Cognizant Business Consulting) is an elite group @ Cognizant (comprising of 1700+ MBAs). The typical profile is Engineer-MBA with IT experience / Experience in Industry domains. The roles are also diverse - Consulting / Business Development / Business Analysis / Competency Building etc.
