I don't hold a MBA degree, but have 3 years of rich experience in Business Planning & particularly S&OP

All this to say, might you have time to guide me

An MBA from ISB or one of the executive programs at IIM would be your best bet to get into consulting.

Go to Mumbai like metro spend 4 years and try to go abroad or open your business in some growing area

You could definitely try and get into Big 4 given the fact that they do hire a lot of industry experts.
Try utilizing your alumni network to identify people who are working in big 4 and especially your target roles. Get to understand the role from them and also to maybe refer you.

Outside of this, the MBA route is always open :)

How would you structure this resume?

Student startups & non-CS undergrad ->
masters in analytics & related part-time work ->
3 yoe DS in tier 2 tech company ops, accidental tech lead ->
burnt out/bored, quit, was lazy doing part time CS prereq classes for a year ->
breadth oriented masters in CS (finishing in spring)

Targeting PM roles cause people work comes easy to me (vs applied science/MLE coding) and ops cost center budgets suck. Doing formal CS just cause wanted to learn, fill in gaps.

I'm at a career juncture and have decided on a career in anti-money laundering as my new path. I'm also highly interested in additional education to further my career and am eyeing graduate school. Which is best? A law degree or a master's in international relations? Those are where my interests lie. I keep reading that JDs are valued in compliance but am wondering if a different graduate program is better for my goals. I already plan to obtain the CAMS certification. Thank you!
