What should my resume look like as I consider exits from consulting? Consulting is my first full time job, so I still have several internships on the page. My full time experience is going to be most relevant to recruiters, but I’ve also heard it would be bad to have more than 4-5 lines (max) under any given role. Finally, I’m not sure how to balance the line between broad experience and specific case experience—should each bullet be a different case?

I started a new job mid last month, but KPMG just got back to me nearly two months after an initial phone interview.

My current job is as a Senior Business Analyst at a boutique firm specializing in FinTech. A little boring if I’m being honest, but salary is 100k.

According to Glassdoor, the salary for this position at KPMG would be ~115k. Senior Associate for Cloud.

How terrible would I be if I ended up leaving my current job after two months? Can anyone actually stomach this?

Is now a terrible time to try and lateral within consulting at the Senior Consultant level? Looking at T2 and MBB. I have referrals lined up at the firms I’m most interested in but I have yet to apply. Are firms still hiring? FYI I’m in Supply Chain/Manufacturing tech and strategy.

A colleague has approached me about taking on a leadership position within a company resource group for minority colleagues.

However, not being a member of the minority group that the resource group supports, I feel slightly uncomfortable taking this position. Any advice?

Job offer A: IT Network Engineer at a Fortune 500. Deals with more legacy stuff like Cisco, Nokia etc. 2.5 weeks of PTO. Seems like company culture is definitely more refined/older. Position is on call once a month. 3 days WFH 2 days office

Job Offer B: Business analyst at a rapidly growing SaaS company. Unlimited PTO, no on call, glass door people all comment on how great the culture is. 3/4 days WFH rest in office.

Which would you take, I’m leaning towards A because I’m more interested in

Hello everyone,

I recently underwent full recruitment cycle for @Avascent from August to September until it was acquired by @OliverWyman in October. The HR of OW (formerly Avascent) requested to me wait until December for the final offer decision. My question is;

1) What are the odds Oliver Wyman will absorb the new hires that underwent the hiring process conducted by Avascent?

2) What should be the expected salary range for an Analyst in Canada in OW/Avascent

The location is Canada.
