There are some great pathways depending on whether you’re looking for academic programs, fellowships, or hands-on experience.

A lot of people pivot into social impact or global health through fellowships, volunteer-based leadership programs, or short-term global development placements. The key is framing your existing experience in a way that aligns with mission-driven organizations — I review a lot of resumes for career changers, and that positioning makes a big difference.

If you ever want insight on how to present your background for this type of pivot, feel free to reach out privately.

When do you think associates are usually let go in small practice groups that are currently being overwhelmed with work? Is it when it starts to slows down or when they already have a candidate to replace you? Just trying to figure out how long I have after annoying a partner 😂.

I heard that if we are on the bench for more than 2 months and if the resources management team share our profile with HR, then HR asks to share the screen and put in the registration? Is that true?

Hey guys, need some advice. I was fortunate enough to get the Consortium fellowship at Ross but am also stuck on the CBS waitlist and am still planning to apply to Wharton in R3. Assuming I get into CBS/Wharton, is there that much of a difference between them to forgo scholarship money? For context, I want to get into product management at FAANG/fintech with pursuing MBB as a plan B. Thanks in advance!
