Hey OP
I wish you well and sorry I cannot help for obvious reasons
But curious to know why
1/ you want to leave
2/ why you think BCG will up you to Principal if you are 3 years PL at K
Genuine questions. No contention

like

Hi McK1, I appreciate the questions.
1) K does not do enough of the type of work, and does not have strong leadership with said skills; BCG and McK have a strong presence in this industry

2) Linked to 1 above; I've demonstrated strong skills for PL/EM level and beyond, but K requires the support of the practice to help move up; without leadership that believes and focuses on the sector, it is difficult to move up as a PL

I am at 2.75 years in PL at K, and I understand that a realistic move will be to the PL role, with an accelerated path to principal if I check the right boxes

👌 what do u do

Dubai is not an option. If you want Riyadh and depending on your practice could be an option but also quite limited options these days.

No chance to get in as a Principal.
PL with no seniority likely scenario.

Hi guys, After CAF completion by last week, yesterday I received a call from the HR for the second round of evaluation. So, I attended it yesterday and performed well by answering 90-95% of the questions. Even the interviewer gave good comments on my performance. But suddenly today I received an email that my candidature isn't suitable for the role and they're keeping my profile in the database. Does this mean they'll call me if there are openings with some other project?

Asking for a friend:
My friend received two job offers for Account Executive roles: a Mid-Market role with Confluent and an Enterprise role with ThoughtSpot. He’s conflicted because Confluent is a more established company, ThoughtSpot is Pre-IPO. Confluent is a lucrative product to sell and has established SDR reps so there’s a good blend of inbound and outbound sales. Thoughtspot is more of a startup culture where most of the sales comes from outbound and it’s a tougher sell.
