Considering an offer to join the diligence and strategy team (work closely with deal teams during diligence) in a large funds operating arm. Long term goal is to find a way into investing - would this be easier to achieve by continuing at MBB and directly looking for buy side roles or switch into the operating role and try and get into the investing teams from there.

Sounds very familiar to my current role. I would recommend just continuing to interview for investment roles. You’re coming from BCG so definitely doable and I think it makes more sense vs trying to lateral from this role or jumping firms after a year for an investment role. Feel free to ping any Qs

Is there precedence at this fund of people going from ops to investing? The possibility of transferring to investing is very very dependent on the fund.

I know of one person who has done it

Definitely reached out but haven’t heard back. Thank you!

Is this for insight? Either way, feel free to DM as I know someone in your same positions

So stuck. What do I do? I joined this firm a year ago (4 yrs exp total) to grow/get more court/client exposure. Then 2 more-experienced associates were hired, pandemic, & all cases are divided between the other 2. I have no defined tasks except deficiency letters or the odd pro bono case. Boss claims it's mentoring. I still need to meet bill req.

Last wk Boss said I'll do more & my work was good, but today said I can't 2nd chair bc I don't have experience. I'm doing less now than my prior firm.

Good morning!

Still trying to figure out this whole Fishbowl thing, so here goes my first post.

I would love to get into provider credentialing, but all employers I've looked at want at least 3 years of experience. So, I'm looking at Provider Network Coordinator roles, because I'm finding some of those roles don't need AS MUCH experience. I'm a RHIT, and have been working in healthcare for nearly 10 years.

Any input on employers is appreciated!
