From Big 4 have a T2 offer, would it be worth moving to T2 then MBB after? Or should I do corporate strategy and then move to a MBB

How long have you been at D?

I would take it and keep recruiting to MBB. If you end up being there for only a month, you don’t even have to include it in your resume.

Nope. They get it

Why all the fascination with moving to an MBB?

T2 firms like OW, Kearney, A&M do that same type of work. So if you’ve already got an offer at one of those types of firms I’d focus on doing a great job there rather than trying to move again in a couple of years. Also MBB firms suck at integrating laterals so even if you do get there there’s a good chance you won’t stay very long

Need some advice. I was asked to apply for a senior digital marketing specialist role (the lowest title I’ve applied for, looking mid-senior level). I applied and they offered me the position, but are telling me I need to start out at the regular specialist level. To me, if I interviewed for the senior title, and I can clearly do the qualifications needed since you offered me the role, I should have that title. Thoughts? Supposedly the reg. specialist role is senior in their org. structure.

No high fives, pats on the back, sharing earbuds to listen to a new song, or consoling an upset friend. Even facial expressions are lost. Tough times.
