After 4+ years at my company, I want to switch to an industry job. But I'm struggling to define what role I'm best suited. Most of my experience at my firm has consisted of data warehousing and ETL development in traditional on-prem database systems. I feel like I'm in a gray area between "data analyst" and "data engineer." Does anyone have any advice or recommendations on the kinds of positions I should be looking at? Thank you in advance.

Well don’t assume we can since we’ll probably just spew nonSense.

What do you enjoy doing the most at your firm? I'd pick whatever job title that aligns you with where you want to go and then work towards closing any gaps between your choosen job title and the job description of that job title at your dream company....

There are ETL/DW roles in traditional industries especially financial industry. Search for those to get a foot in the door. You can pivot to other roles once you are in.

McKinsey & Company How likely is McKinsey to rescind an offer if there's a recession/downturn before my start date? Received an Associate offer with a start date early in the Fall. But I'm worried about the offer being rescinded due to the ongoing McK scandals/issues and a potential recession in the making (which may prompt them to freeze hiring and/or renege offers).

Has this happened to anyone before at McKinsey, offer getting rescinded due to economic/company downturn? A bit worried

7 year lawyer here. Been with the same big national firm all 7 years (not BigLaw) doing complex litigation. Been working remote a long time due to moving around for wife’s job. As a result of the moving was bumped off partner track. I’m looking at a great small firm that will be a practice change (but still litigation). I’m told they’re looking for someone with less experience and they’re skeptical because of my experience. It’s frustrating. How do I overcome this?
