Any thoughts on moving into tech from sell-side research? Have an MBA and currently work as a research associate but not enjoying this anymore…getting repetitive and cumbersome. Plus WLB doesn’t justify the pay. Have a few friends who have suggested partner development roles in tech and from what I’ve heard, those sound awesome (relationship management, some number crunching, product knowledge etc.). Anyone have thoughts on how to go about this? Or where to start even? In Canada but can go to US

Why not consider Product Management roles in tech instead?

I don’t even know where to start with that. Most I come across require tech/coding experience. Know anyone that’s made a similar transition?

Getting over heartbreak and having a full time job is torture lol. My boyfriend and I just broke up after almost a year of being together.

My body hurts, my stomach is in knots, my head hurts. How is it that I have to mend a broken heart but also meet my billable hours lmao

Hi all,

I interviewed with capgemini for SAP ABAP role and my YOE is 4 years. Just 2 hours after my interview, I got a call from someone at Capgemini saying that I am selected.
They just asked my notice period and current location.I asked them, what is the next round going to be and they said that it is going to be salary discussion. But till now, no one has reached out to me.
Does it mean they got another candidate for same job?
If they get back to me, how much should I ask?
Current - 9.9
