Anyone have any insight into UNC’s (Chapel Hill) MBA program? I recently got my acceptance letter and plan to attend next year. Ultimately, I would like to use the degree as an exit opportunity to pivot into strategy consulting. Does the school typically carry a high degree of notoriety? For context, I am currently in IT, specifically SAP. I will use my remaining military benefits to front the majority of the costs. Thanks in advance!

Full time is a great program—MBB probably isn’t going to happen, but I’ll bet you end up with an offer to a T2/B4 strategy shop if you want it, especially as a veteran.

Thank you for the reply! Hope so, that would be great.

McKinsey was the 2nd largest consulting offers during my year. Consulting in general isn’t going to be easy or guaranteed, but MBB isn’t out of the realm of possibility. They all come on campus for recruiting.

I believe 7 or so 1Ys got McKinsey offers this year. There’s 1 going to Bain and 1 to BCG. A few are going to T2s. 10+ to Deloitte. The numbers are better this year than in the past but prob the case at every school.

That’s good to hear. Typically, what is the TC for 1Y’s??

Very nice. Thank you all for the feedback!

Hello fellow SAP Consultants!
I am SAP HCM consultant having 4.10 years of experience. I feel that this module doesn’t have any growth. My first switch took me to 9LPA from 6LPA and now the second switch is being offered for 11.5LPA where I can see my fellow friends in SAP having more than 15LPA at the same experience on their second switch itself. Should I be worried about my skillset? Any insights would highly be appreciated. I feel stuck.

Hi Sharks 🦈,

Need some suggestions: My current company is on a layoff spree and 2 rounds are already done and I can foresee another round coming very soon.

While I am trying to switch to other companies, I’m not able to reveal the real reason from my side for the job change, as if I say, it’s because of layoff fears than it’ll reduce my negotiation power.

What other reasons can I give as I’ve just completed 9 months here and it’s too soon for any other company to take me in.
