I have a few questions for people in consulting roles (both external/internal).

My partner is in corporate banking, but he wants to switch to a consulting/strategy-based role. I noticed people with those jobs typically have an MBA, and also majority of the job ads in similar roles has MBA as either a requirement or preferred qualification. So:

1) does MBA actually improve someone's chance in getting those roles?
2) are there any good Canadian MBA programs you'd recommend?

Thank you all!

For all the 🐠 that switched from consulting to product, which role provided you with more tangible skills? I know I’m making some broad strokes here, but thought it might open other discussions as well

Need career advice. Trying to break into a finance role, preferably an Analsyt role but I have no transferable experience. I worked as a mortgage loan officer (which is sales) for 2 years after college, but since mortgage is such a niche industry, no hard skills transfer and have no relevant undergrad internships unfortunately. I know I can essentially get any sales job I want in finance IE: financial advisor etc. but don’t want to be stuck in sales forever. Any advice?

I’ve got a friend in Dubai who has experience in IB and VC at junior levels (in London and Dubai) and would like to break into consulting. He’s at a small cap VC at the moment and works not that challenging, and he wants to break into MBB or tier 2 for strategy. Anyone happy to look at his CV?

I had a crush on a girl. It's been almost 2 years since I confessed my feelings to her and today she told me that she likes me too.
The only issue is she's a Muslim and I'm a Hindu. She believes we don't have a future and that's why she took a long time to confess. She is confused on what to do and even I am confused because things will actually be difficult for obvious reasons.
Please advice on what we should do now.
Should we part ways or should we fight for it?

Looking for honest opinions: would you trust career advice from someone who doesn’t necessarily have a background in career coaching but has always been “that friend” that everyone calls for career advice, resumes, salary negotiations etc?
I have a long background in management and have been very successful in climbing the ladder but I would love to start career coaching on the side. Any feedback is helpful!

Any companies hiring for Forensic Accounting (Investigations, Litigations, AML, etc.) I have both my CPA and CFE.

I was wondering if the review course “CPE Self Study Course” for the CFF was enough preparation to study and pass the CFF exam. The CFE review course was enough and like if you get a question wrong it explains it well so that when it comes up in a different way in the real exam you can still get it. But when I saw the outline for the CFF material and there seems to be a lot of topics so I was wondering if the review course was sufficient considering this exam is also multiple choice. Thanks!

Hello everyone! Please is there anyone who could kindly give a referral for the associate, compliance, risk and due diligence role (Canada) advertised by Kroll? I have been trying to reach the recruiter for ages! I would be really grateful. Thank you.

How’s work life balance in forensics?

Interviewing for FTI Consulting Forensic Litigation consulting in 1 month. Anyone work for this firm and have any thoughts on them?

Hi , is anyone willing to give a referral
- 3 month away from 2 years in audit (2 busy seasons)
- NYC /NJ area
- No CPA ( I know I have to get it please don’t leave this comment )

Does anyone know the salary rage in dallas for a staff 1 in forensics? Specifically IFCS or I&C

Does anyone have the CFF (Certified in Financial Forensics) credential? Has it opened any doors?

I'm getting a MAcc to career change to forensic accounting. What opportunities are available to me with a data analytics heavy MAcc? I'm also tacking on 2 graduate certificates in Applied Statistics and International Economic Policy? For those in the field, would that be useful or not useful (i.e. waste of time)? I'm interested in investigations but also analytics, financial modeling, and expert witness services. Throw in salary potential for bonus points. I'll be getting my CPA, CFE, and CAMS.

What are some realistic exit opportunities? I’ve been doing insurance/damage loss this whole time. Wouldn’t mind doing the same thing either but I just need a pay increase

Considering going for the CFE. What was your study plan for it and how long did it take?

Hi, l’m looking for a referral for a non tech forensic manager position. Feel free DM me if your company is hiring. I can provide more details in DM. Thanks in advance.

Does anyone know of any fraud-centric investigations roles that pay decently (140k or more)? I’m in investigations now and am doing alright, but feel like there has to be more out there in Consulting or places I just don’t know about aside from typical bank jobs.

Please share your salary/location/level. I need to negotiate salary and would truly appreciate the help.

If anyone wants to study for the CFE but doesn’t want to pay the full price for the study materials and would be interested to split it, please DM me

Hi , can anyone please share what their interview was like with EY ? I’m applying for a senior position. Thanks
