I realize I don't qualify for most entry level jobs that want college hires and don't qualify for a senior position with (2-3) years of experience either. Should I wait it out another year and build my technical skills? I've been wanting to do more with cloud and devopsn- should I get certified in the meantime?

Yes, stay where you are. Get certified in a field that excites you, provided you can find a technical role to back up the certification - nothing beats real world experience.

And if you’re just out of college, you don’t want to job hop every year. I say stick it out through one promotion while you execute on your plan, and then start looking.

Working at ACN right now, 2 YOE. Will pivoting over to a startup in a more software sales-based role for another 2 years before my MBA (and moving internationally for this) add to, or take away from my story? I’m thinking:
Cons: less brand recognition, shows I didn’t stick around long enough to show progression, strength of recommenders, lower pay
Pros: international experience, less conventional background and shows I have a more diversified skill, probably more impact @ a startup.
Thoughts?

Feeling dejected. 1). Looked stupid in front of an executive stakeholder because she asked a question, expecting me to know it. It’s related to my work stream, but the key project details were completed by another person, & I didn’t have it. She skoffed & looked exasperated. 2) the ball was dropped because there was something I was responsible for, but was never trained on and no one told me. It was an obvious thing that I should’ve been aware of. Client got pissed. I want to hide ahh
