Does anyone have a recommendation for someone to help me write my resume and synthesize my experiences? Been in consulting for 3 years since undergrad and want some outside perspective on potential exit opportunities. Thanks in advance! My background is in CX strategy and product management (have actually lead multiple products from strategy to go live)

The most helpful resume feedback I received was through from an alum of my program (this was while I was recruiting during my MBA, but you could do the same thing). He was kind enough to spend 30 min on the phone with me going through my resume. He read through each of my bullets and told me what he read. I found out that I was not communicating nearly as well as I thought I was and my experience was coming off much weaker than it actually was. I went into recruiting and got about 5x as many interviews afterwards. Having a different person's perspective - preferably someone from a target industry and who doesn't already know you well - is extremely valuable. I would look into your network and see if you can find someone like this to give you their perspective.

Thanks SC! I have a few people from industry that are willing to look it over and provide feedback/edits, just hoping for a service or person who is able to help me shape the narrative and explain my general skill set since I’m open to a lot of different things. Really hoping for someone to help clarify that jumping off point before I get individuals to help me tailor and refine my story

Looking at exits into pharma and biotech. Have an opp at a biotech at the SM level. Total comp excluding equity is around $190k; RSUs vest over 4 years with annual refreshers, so first year equity would be around $6,200 and it would go up by $6,200 each of the next 3 years, plus whatever base bump I get. Very good benefits package.

They envision 2-3 years before I jump either to AD or right to D. Solid opp? Or hold out to go straight to director level?
