Most (not all) certs are sorting/filtering criteria for recruiting; particularly when there is an abundance of candidates to look through. One can easily get hired, and perform the role and be compensated fairly without them. However, when there is a lot of competition for the position, it may help your resume get seen.

So stuck. What do I do? I joined this firm a year ago (4 yrs exp total) to grow/get more court/client exposure.

Boss claims it's mentoring. I still need to meet bill req.

Last wk Boss said I'll do more & my work was good, but today said I can't 2nd chair bc I don't have experience. I'm doing less now than my prior firm.

Hello guys!!
Can anyone of you please help me out? Or atleast some advice!!

I'm a bit confused between Accenture and Bain & Company.
I've offers from both of these firms with almost similar package. The role is not related to consulting but more into the technical+business side.
If I go with Bain, will it be more fruitful wrt brand value and job switch in next few years?
Also, how is the hike and compensation benefits for the employees at Bain?

Any sort of help/advice is more than welcome!
