I have an opportunity to get into luxury real estate. The person that would act as my mentor makes about $500k-1mil per year, and around $2-300k in bad years. They have done this their whole life and has an amazing network, and is willing to mentor me to take over their role as they near retirement, which would be more of an advisory role sitting on the board. I have always been interested in real estate, but am not sure if anyone else has made a transition like this and has any advice on it!

Can any MBB experienced hire confirm if GRE or SAT scores are required during the application process? Did you submit any test scores when applying?

Appreciate any advice. Thank you.

Currently a management consultant at Accenture Canada. I've been proactively reached out by the recruiting team at Capgemini and offered a bump from ~105K to ~133 K base for the role of advisory manager. 

How do I squeeze the most out of the salary negotiation process? I suspect that my work life balance and amount of support I’ll receive on projects will take a hit as they have a relatively less established Canadian market practice.

Any other thoughts on the transition? Thanks so much!

Hi Everyone! I know that recruiting now is slow and most of the firms are on a hiring freeze, but are there firms who are currently making the exception and are still actively hiring for some reasons?

Would it be difficult to get a job in IA if most of my experience has been auditing private non-404 asset mgmt funds? I really enjoy process walkthroughs when I have them though. Also, does title matter that much in IA? I’m a manager now, but based on job descriptions it looks like I might have to go for a senior auditor role because audit manager roles generally call for 8+ years from what I’m seeing. Can title be negotiated?
