Has anyone here ever considered/is considering med school after working in consulting? just wondering what the transition process was like. I am trained in life sciences and decided to try consulting postgrad to try something completely new.

Do any insurance carriers have part time positions? I’ve been an underwriter for about 4 years, but have been contemplating staying at home with my kids. Part time seems like the perfect balance, just not sure if I can find that in this industry.

Is your district providing SLP’s PPE or are you responsible for supplying your own? I have heard a ton about teachers and feel that we are being lumped in with them. Districts are not recognizing that we are health care professionals working in an academic environment. We are at much higher risk do to the nature of our work.

I have 13 years in healthcare, primarily in Radiology (brief stint in Chiropractic), medical billing & coding, and medical assisting. 5 of those years are in management.

Curious to see how this would be transferable to overseas, specifically Europe. It’s an idea that my bf and I have been throwing around for a couple years, and I’m starting to think I could go back to school to help that possibility become reality.

I would like to ask for a few recommendations of books that is related to mental health or psychology

After two years of studying for the lsat, working, finishing up undergrad, going through a mental crisis or two and moving three times, I have decided to step away from the path of becoming an Immigration lawyer (I’m in my 30s). I’m mentally spent and already have a lot of undergrad debt. But I still really want to help in this area, especially assist refugees, asylum seekers, and working/advocating to change some laws if possible. I feel like this field/category is vast and complicated, so I…

Got 2 offers and need help deciding:

1.) Customer Success Engineer at Databricks
2.) Implementation Product Manager at Chargeback

If both have pretty much the same TC, which one would you choose and why?

I work through a contractor, and was hired 2yrs ago to be a Systems Test Engineer II. They decided last minute to make me a Software Content Manager, but kept my title as is since it was supposed to be a 6mo rotation. I’m still an SCM, and am taking on leadership roles in the group. How do I ask for a title change and pay increase to reflect what I actually do? Do I ask my contract house, or my NASA mgmt? Should I ask to make the pay retroactive since I was hired to do one thing, but do another?

Can anybody in Deloitte’s CBO Operations Transformation practice provide some background on what the group does?

Random thought experiment: what is the hobby with the most diverse following you can think of? I was pleasantly surprised by how incredibly diverse the audience at an anime convention was, so it occurred to me to ask the question what else was like that? Fishing, while male dominated, is loved by all ages, races, ethnicities, and income levels; that’s the best I could come up with. Pro / college sports the in person audience is not diverse due to cost mostly.

How often do you see lateral moves from Big 4 or others to MBB?

Obviously MBB are the top consulting firms, but would people feel different about prestige based on service line?
