McKinsey & Company Ended up striking out at McKinsey & Company final rounds after what I thought was a good interview. The partner said to keep in touch and everyone loved talking to me and would love for me to try again next year. Is this something they all say just to make me feel better or is there an actual opportunity next year? I was ~8 months out of college from a non target

I am working as a consultant at a big-4 company in deal advisory.
Should i hide that i didn't pass CFA level 1 when on the interview for other consultancy firm?
Should i write something in CV? I plan to opt again in May 2022. I know that i can mention that I'm CFA level 1 candidate (may 2022)

Hi Fishes,

I got offer Letter from infosys 2.5 months back, now when I am trying to decline the offer by sending a mail to HR, it was not getting delivered as HR left the organisation 1 month back, I forwarded mail to feedback team of infosys but still got the mail from onboarding team with joining details and WebEx link, kindly suggest how to proceed in this case.

Does anyone have Organization Design case study experience?? I’m hoping to get some insight to help prep for my Consultant interview in some days with Deloitte.

I’m graduating in December, with a background in environmental economics and policy. Consulting didn’t work out this cycle. Made it to final rounds for Bain and Kearney but in the end didn’t get an offer. I want to recoup and try again, but I’m worried that once I’m out of undergrad the door will be closed to starting in consulting.

What can I do to make this happen? I have friends and connections at Bain and Kearney and the other firms as well, but not sure if it’s feasible now.

What are some red flags you've noticed in the hiring process? I've finally landed an interview after weeks of applying. I think it went well on my end, but something about the managers I spoke with just feels...off.

Would it be out of line during interviews to ask about agency revenue/growth or account health/trends?

If you are an industry hire (one consulting firm to another) do you send thank you emails to all your interviewers? Used to do this religiously in B-school. I don’t even have email addresses cont.

"Hi. Reaching out because I really like your book. It made me laugh a lot. I have a great opportunity that won't allow you to use humor or smart thinking. Let me know what you think. Best, Recruiter."

Seeking advice: I am a young sales consultant and sales engineer working for a tech startup company. I have 6 years of sales experience. And I have been helping run my family business for the past 10 years. I was intially interviewed for a senior account executive position at a $70k offer. Instead they told me I needed more training and hired me as a Junior account executive at a $50k salary + commission. Today is my 6th month mark and I have done very well. And no talks of a promotion / raise..

Is there an RPA bowl or a Blue Prism bowl? Couldn’t find it when searching but not sure if the app is just acting up

What is the salary for Software Engineer position at Optum?

Hey Bowl,
I work for a late stage(ipo) start up, earlier this year we were acquired & since then they got rid of our yearly bonuses and gave us an ESOP grant.
2 RIFs later we are almost bare bones. Since we are coming up on our usual yearly evaluations many of us assumed (with multiple conversation from our managers) that pay raises and promotions were due.
In a recent All hands we found out that this year there will be no pay raises nor promotions based off merit. Is it time to jump ship?

D 🐠, what was your take home in first year as principal? I assume you all get roughly 350 units and have to finance your buy in. What does that leave for your monthly draw? And after your insurance?

Given crazy market returns recently, do you still expect the market to rise at 10% over the next 30 years?

Any firms have a focus on Aerospace and Defense industries? Headhunters always reach out about tech and healthcare firms (as well as more generalist ones), which are great but I’m just not that interested. Only find a few with significant A&D exposure.

The first rule of overemployment is dont talk about overemployment to anyone outside your house. :). Second: always protect the main job. Third: As the main job always has the priority, the Second and third jobs must preferably be contract gigs with not too many meetings everyday. Remember: another day, another dollar.

Urgent : i am a .net dev in one of the small service based organisation working for their client @globalPayments, today i got to know that globalpayment drop us…60% of the employees were on 3rd party payroll… my organisation is going to release them soon… what should i do…wait or look for other opportunities…

Any CAIA holders out there? How have you generally been viewed?

Any M 40+ in Nairobi? The apps here are not it!

I have family members who are inside claims reps for a large company. The company sends out emails 4 times/day showing who is currently not available for calls. To everyone working in claims in the entire country! It’s been a minute since I worked in claims. And never for this particular company. But is this shaming the new way to manage WFH.? Sounds at least toxic.

Any good book recommendations for new Managers in consulting ?

After months of suspense, Accenture UK emailed to confirm I am not getting fired. Time to get 💩

So i have been fortunate that i have managed to go through my career without the need for a degree. I was lucky enough to have been hired by one of the worlds top consulting firms, worked with a whole lot of big clients and travelled a lot. It's gotten to the point where I am not even asked about the lack of a degree on my resume. Personally though, it bothers me. I have a whole bunch of certifications in my industry…but just no formal degree. (cont'd)

I’m a few years into TMT strategy consulting on my way to EM over the next year or two. A focus for me is to start expanding my professional network. Are there any networking events in particular to keep an eye out for?

how do you think through complex issues to derive solutions? any frameworks, books, papers etc folks would recommend?

Do you think there will be any changes to the MBB trifecta over the next 5-10 years? Either removals or additions.

And no, I don't mean MBBD.

This is what I SHOULD have asked... Okay so I currently work for KPMG and the contract with PwC talent exchange is international. Is it a conflict of interest if I’m not doing the same type of work?

Relatively new in Big4 M&A advisory doing mostly integration work with some pre deal DD mixed in. I recently heard L.E.K. Consulting places well in MM PE but don't know much about them otherwise. Was interested if anyone had insight into whether a jump to their M&A or PE groups would be possible. In terms of background, I have an undergrad business degree from a T20 school and graduated a T14 law school as well.
