Can anyone provide insight into the Senior Consultant role for Medical Affairs with IQVIA?

Literally feel stuck without my CPA! I currently work as corporate accountant and have 3 years of public accounting experience specializing in governmental and not-for-profit accounting.

There is not a senior level accounting position for me to move into at my current company and with 4.5 years of experience I feel like I need to move to a senior level to gain some supervisory skills. It seems without my CPA, finding a senior accountant position making 80k/year is not realistic. What can I do?

Wanted to get everyone’s thoughts on this short term vs long term decision; currently I’m a consultant making 100k. Friend just got a job offer from another competitor for 150k senior consultant . I won’t hit senior until summer 24. My thought process is when I hit senior in 2 year I can apply for a manger role elsewhere for more. Should I follow suit as my friend and run or stay the course?

I’m completely failing as acting senior. I’m a new associate (<6 months exp.) and I’ve been placed in this pseudo acting senior role since a few members of our team left. I find myself dropping the ball in a near daily basis now that we’re approaching end of year. My team is super supportive/nice but I feel like they are at there breaking point with me and my incompetence. Anyone been in a similar situation?

Hello…looking for opinions on my situation. I applied for a senior sales position in a completely different industry (stretch target, but worth a try.) The job responsibilities are what I do today so I’m qualified on paper, but their industry experience is “preferred”. I’ve been invited to interview which is great but I’m going straight into a 4-person panel Zoom interview, which includes a couple of senior management people. No BS HR screening call. What’s are your thoughts on this?

Hi there. I am currently going through the stages of negotiating my salary. I moved from a senior customer service role into an operations and training role about a year ago. Upon getting this role I asked for a wage review at 6months, this never occurred, then at my yearly review raised again and then was told I should go for a raise, ended up being given the award increase that I was entitled to not a “raise”
Now I have followed this up again and want advice on ensuring i wont be dismissed

Thanks for adding more hoops for us to jump through. Becoming a principal in KM has always been a question mark. I've been here close to a decade now and I thought I could at least become a senior director (like AP - both the position and the person) in a few years. Now I find there's another level to grind through and burn myself out with politics to reach the top. Truly, 2022 has been a horrible year at ZS. I feel like I've returned to a totally different company after the pandemic.

Currently a senior accountant at a small company doing the monthly close financial process. Got two offers, one as a senior cost accountant and one as a senior financial analyst. Both similar comp and at great companies that have 10,000 or more employees. I’ve been wanting to get experience in both cost accounting and financial analysis.

Which role would be the smartest move based off the titles?

Has anyone here successfully negotiated a salary? (Banking/Finance). How did you do it and do you have any advice or tips? For example, you look up the title of your position on Glassdoor and it shows a much higher salary (20-30% higher) for a fairly large sample size n=>20. It’s also a mid level/senior position. Not entry level and also, youre an extremely good/candidate

Can anyone provide insight into Oracle Cerner Senior Engagement role salary, west coast ?

What are folks' thoughts about taking a Senior PgM role at a pre - IPO SaaS company? I am interested in the firm; it’s got good leadership, and the pay is solid. Just wondering if I could pivot back to consulting if I don’t end up enjoying being on the other side. I've been a career consultant, so I don’t know what it’s like on the other side.

Hi All,

Feeling particularly burnt out in my
current role (senior, fund accounting) and
looking to make a career change. I'm
lined up for a promotion to AM in April
but I know that my WLB will be even
worse when that happens. I've been
looking at financial/investment analysis
roles in other companies but haven't had
a ton of luck yet. Can anyone help me out
with a referral, or just recommend
potential companies to look into? Ideally
looking for pay at 90k+ with solid
benefits. TIA

How do you stay interested in your role for 4+ years? I'm only a senior associate but I find myself getting bored of my role quite frequently

Here’s the question…
Stay in my current Product Manager role at General Motors (avg salary, not learning/progressing PdM space, good wlb, lots of work but lots of politics, messy process and conflicts with other teams) OR move into a Senior PdM at Mapbox (higher salary, RSUs, unknown culture, unknown wlb, etc.). Mapbox is intriguing because I feel like it will help me grow as a product manager, but I’m a little worried this may be “grass is greener on other side” scenario.

Hi folks. I'm a Senior Account Manager at Microsoft, 10 YOE working with board level stakeholders to onboard workloads. AWS approached me for a Customer Solutions Manager role which is exactly what I do for Microsoft. The hiring manager sent a team member who turned my interview into a technical deep dive. I'm not a Cloud Solutions Architect! Question... Is it normal for AWS to send the tech police to non tech interviews? The guy might as well been a robot.

I’ve been a financial accountant for 10 years, several corporations, currently holdings accountant. I have been offered a role as senior master data finance analyst within a listed multinational with many new acquisitions and integrations. The role involves master data management, process improvements, documentation, participation in data migrations, business support and incident management. Anyone that has taken a similar path, what are your impressions and the value added to your experience?

Why do people with 10+ yrs in industry come back to PA as managers in AAS? Is that really the best move comp-wise? Makes me think twice about exiting to a senior industry role 😬

Hey, y’all. I’m a mixed methods social science researcher with deep experience in facilitated qualitative processes. I would really appreciate connecting with mid- and senior-level remote UX researchers to understand how I can most advantageously represent my skill set and work history to those who are already in the field. Portfolio review, position referrals, and general advice are all appreciated. Of course, if there’s anything I can do for you in exchange, don’t hesitate to ask.

Hi all,
I might have an interview with BCG London for a Senior Associate position soon. Just got a referral and submitted my cover letter. Any tips to prepare for the interview (kind of cases, what fit questions I can expect, number of rounds and turnaround time etc.) would be really helpful.
A bit of my background: worked in KPMG for 2 years, did a MiM at LBS, now at a procurement specialist in London. I have practiced cases during college, but away for a year.
