Are the exit opportunities better in Internal Audit/Business Process than IT Audit? All I hear is how awful IT Audit is but don’t hear as much complaining from the business side

I agree this type of job isn’t not as exciting in a max telework situation. I’m tired of sitting in front of my computer all day.

Well, here's me complaining about the business side then lol. I am counting down the days until I leave.

The work is awful, but I do feel the business side has slightly better exit ops. The IT people who leave generally go into other IT compliance roles (IT audit, cybersecurity).

IA side can be more broad, including other IA groups (obviously), financial analyst, forensic, even IT audit. Business side is just a broader experience in general, where we touch IT stuff but don't specialize in it. Also helps that some IA people have CPA, which greatly helps exit ops, while IT people, at best, have CISA (which does nothing if you're trying to get out of IT compliance).

Any advice on shifting from association law to commercial real estate in FL?

I've been applying to jobs for months but every position wants at least 2yrs of experience in real estate transactions, usually way more. I'm at 1yr+ doing HOA/condo work but have had no opportunity to do real estate transactions like I expected. Seems like the only way to get the experience is to have nailed a big law gig right out of school and get put into that practice.

Hey! Any Google folks know if it’s possible to negotiate fully remote if a contract role is hybrid? Personally, I don’t want to relocate and go to the office on a contract role given the current economy. Plus, I’m assuming contractors are the first to go in layoffs. I just think it’s a fair trade off if I’d be allowed to work fully remote. I’m also trying to have flexibility to manage my Airbnb business in a different country. Same time zone as the home office if I’d travel weeks at a time.

Bain & Company Hi everyone,

I am currently working as a Software Engineer in Persistent Systems.

I have total exp of 8 months and serving notice period. I have offers from Mckinsey and BCG for their tech roles, but I wish to switch to consulting.

Could anyone please refer me or if you know someone who could refer me at Bain & Company for the Associate Consultant position?

Thank you in advance.

Went through multi-day loop for L5 SA and felt confident in my interactions. Presentation went well with no lack of answers for follow up questions. Just found out 6 days later I will not be receiving an offer, and it is policy to not provide feedback of gaps or reasons behind no offer. Also found out they ask you not to reapply for 1 to 2 years for same role. Would anyone recommend an alternate path for feedback on interview (outside of recruiter) and is the 1-2 year policy true?

Do you count internships towards your years of experience? I did 20 months all together interning but not sure if that moves my needle from mid to senior when job hunting.

One of the reasons I want to transition from industry to consulting (tier 1) is that I get frustrated when I have to collaborate with mediocre people. My assumption is that Tier 1 consulting firms hire really sharp people and if I can get in, I’ll be collaborating with folks on top of their game (not expecting much from clients). I’m aware there are personal aspects I need to work on like my mindset, patience etc etc, but I just get so frustrated with blatant stupidity.
