Your best bet is transfer to a finance transformation management consulting role at B4. If you want MBB, get an MBA

👋🏼 HI! 34 yo female looking to break into an entry level sales role (pharmaceutical/health/wellness) related ideally. But open to where I need to start to get my foot in the door. Would appreciate any leads on Hybrid sales roles in the Austin area! Or even more networking resources aside from here and linked in 😊.

So, I've realised there's a problem with developers, a lot of them are coders, not engineers. And another issue, is that, companies don't really care about their progression as far as I'm aware, so what did you guys do in your own time to transition from being a coder to an engineer?
