Hi, everyone!

Looking to move from (healthcare) industry to consulting.

Currently working in direct patient care, but I have 3 years experience in healthcare operations and administration. I also completed a 2 year communications fellowship in an unrelated industry.

We're moving towards the end of the year, so if anyone is hiring despite this/before year's end and the potential recession, I would love to chat about my resume and your organization to potentially secure a referral.

TIA!

I have spent my first few years out of undergrad working at LS clients doing various strategy projects. I am looking at getting an MBA and trying to pivot into a VC role to focus on early stage companies. Not yet sure my dream role, but would like to focus in the healthcare or life sciences area.

Any suggestions for schools to look at or generalized advice? Not sure if programs like Wharton’s HCM would check this box?

Looking for some sincere wisdom and advice on an exit opp. I have a Corp strategy offer but comp is significantly lower than current ($50K lower base and same bonus). I know it’s a good step forward in terms of career but just can’t seem to swallow the pill of a huge paycut. It also feels like a double whammy with $50K in childcare costs. Anyone been in a similar situation? How does it feel on the other end? Thank you! 🙏🏽

3 months into my new job, my boss is offering program manager role after a positive feedback from the team. Also, a program manager resigned last month and that is also 1 reason, I'm being offered the role. Before starting I got the comp I asked for but now within 3 months, should I be greedy or what is the % bump I should negotiate?

I am a recent hire as a “IT specialist” and I’m just doing IT Audits. To be fair I was an intern prior and knew what I would be doing, but nevertheless I’m 3 months in now full time and I realize I don’t want to get stuck in an IT compliance role my whole career. I’m interested in consulting, how hard would it be move sideways in the company to a consulting role, given that this is my only experience? I want a chance at career outside of compliance and I can’t see that happening with this role.

I started a new job recently and inherited a kid whom my leadership loves. My leadership gave him a special project doing the work I’m going to be hiring someone for, so they all think it’s a done deal. However, I’m not one to fall in line and will choose the best candidate for the job with no preferential treatment.

The kid is smart and hungry, which is great. However, I’m noticing behaviors that indicate he’s self-serving and not a team player. I’m not sure I can trust him tbh. Thoughts?

How many references do you need for a new role and how do you reach out to people for help here

How much detail are you expected to go into when asked to give a roadmap for a tech implementation project? I talked about defining scope/success criteria, framework, development (iterative development), testing, support, and rollout in decent detail. Is there anything I missed? A partner asked me this in a behavioral so kind of caught me off guard. For the business tech solutions analyst role in Deloitte GPS.

I’ve recently learned that my parents weren’t as financially responsible as I had thought growing up. It seems like now that my dads retired and with the market in flux, things are a lot tighter. It’s really difficult to see and I’m currently not in the position to help yet as a student. It makes me really upset to see them struggle

Have never felt as lost or mentally exhausted in my career, as I do right now. I spent my career in industry, then made the jump to consulting. I second guess everything I do, or say or write to the point where my performance is spiraling. I’m coming to grips w the fact that consulting just may not be for me, but concerned a quick (14 month) exit will reflect poorly on my resume.

Anyone else been here, and can offer advice?

Hi Deloitters. I may be interested in the Pursuit Manager role. Can you give me insights into pay, like ability of the role, and if you can give a reference? I seem to have the skills - but haven’t had luck getting hired!
