Trying to help my fiance find ESG consulting gigs. She is about to graduate in the spring as a government major and public policy minor (t-10 public school, 3.9+ gpa). Does anyone know of firms that are hiring right now, or will be in the spring?

Job boards are looking pretty bleak right now. Any help would be so greatly appreciated

Can anyone provide a referral to Accenture?

Any fish here who moved to Dubai/ME from Europe/North America and moved back home after a few years? How easy was it to move back home in terms of finding a position that didn’t require a demotion?

I heard from one person that if I want to move to back to my home country after working a few years in Dubai as a big 4 SM, my experience wouldn’t be valued at big 4 in Europe/North America and I’d have to start at least one step back. Is that true?

Hoping to find better insights here!

Currently at a role that doesn’t align with my interest and career aspiration. The demanding culture can’t meet my work-and-life need as a new mom.

I hope to work with a coach that guide me through the process of landing a new career role that’s better aligned with my interest, value, and lifestyle etc.

I’m based in the Bay Area, so open to opportunities in tech.

Would career coach or interview coach better suited with my need? Any coaches do both?

Please share any good coach recommendations

More specifically, are hiring managers looking for stats heavy (i.e., Increased user adoption for newly implemented application by 10% through removal of training roadblocks) or more generalized (i.e., Identified training roadblock and devised solutions which increased user participation in training)?

Thank you!

How do you identify “burnout?” Pre-MBA, I used to be a high performer at my old job, but now since I have started my Consulting role post-MBA (after 2 years of a mostly remote MBA) I am really, really struggling. Not only have I been making a lot of stupid mistakes, but I have also been waking up dreading going to work, hating myself and in general really disliking the job. I want to quit and move back in with my parents. Is this burnout? Could my career recover if I did nothing for a few years?

Should I include a cover letter when submitting an application? I’ve heard lots of hiring managers often don’t even look at cover letters anymore. Anyone have experience with not submitting and still getting an offer?

How is the bench these days in Deloitte Cyber? Seriously thinking of going back after being gone a year. Looking at Manager or SplM. Wasn’t unhappy when I left, but the position I took here seemed very promising. It’s not what I had been sold and way worse then Deloitte. I was surrounded by good people at Deloitte.

I’m thinking of applying to business school but worried I won’t have time to get a solid letter of rec if next years app is due in September. If I take this new role, I’d get a 50% comp increase and more responsibility. I have 4 YOE and have worked at my organization for 1.5 years. Should I take the money or just stay here and get the rec?

Wanted to check with the group about how good is Gartner strategy consulting ? Any idea about the hiring process?

Applied to deloitte on Job posting and had partner referral. Partner sent me a link I added CV and cover letter on my own and (think) I applied.

Then got no emailing saying thank you for applying and 3 days later got email saying "thank you fpr interest but job posting has unfortunately closed" WTF
Then I go online and see the same job posted with different Job ID like WTf and new date of posting.
Now do I bug partner on this. Or assume my application went and but they are still searching.(1/2)
