Honestly, this is a totally backwards way to look at it. Don’t figure out what the standard menu is and choose. Figure out what you actually want to do, and then chart a path towards that.

I agree with BCG 2 it would be ideal to figure out what you want to do first, but sometimes it is helpful to know what paths others have charted in the past to get some information and bearings.

People can be at very different points in their career and self-exploration, and I would be very hesitant to tell someone any approach is “backwards” before getting to know more about the situation and their individual starting point. Let’s not let ideal be the enemy of “good enough for now” and “getting the ball rolling.”

My resume clearly says I've got 10yrs experience and an MBA. I **don't think* I should be getting offers of 80k-100k
