At my company, I am one of the ITSM/Business Process Analysts. I was curious to know if anyone else here in the same or similar role has bothered to get a Six Sigma certification? Since we are always looking at business processes and how to improve on them, I was wondering if this was worth getting?

Agile/lean principles are likely more applicable for ITSM. Colleges offer lean six sigma certifications as well. Depending on the cost, (my prior company paid 5k for a lean six sigma cert), it might just be worth learning on your own. I suggest saving money and shopping for an online course.

Hi! I’ve been in the ESG space for nearly 7 years and submitted an app for an ESG Consulting role at PwC. My app was unfortunately rejected. Now, my app is ‘under review’ in the system. Between the time of the rejection and reversal, I’ve made connections with people in the department and the role has been reopened/reposted. Should I reapply using a referral and revamped resume or just try my luck with the application that’s now ‘under review?’ I want to be sure my chances are better this time.

Hey Dallas folks!

I want to get to know the local private companies. I worked at a private company with 2-3k employees before my MBA. They had an amazing culture, but limited progression opportunities. I'm thinking about looking for a smaller company (couple hundred to couple thousand employees) in the Dallas area and looking to find an amazing culture.

Anyone have recommendations on companies with great cultures in the Dallas/north of Dallas areas? (I live in the Plano/Allen/Mckinney area)
