@BA2 what market are you in? What level?

Health Market Snr Consultant

@BA2 yup that’s how I felt too and no matter how many times I voiced my interest, they never got me work I wanted, that’s why I looked externally.

We’re twins I guess. They talk about building competencies but won’t go after the work for no obvious reason.

I literally just did it. Started at the payer side of a large payer/provider org at the beginning of last month.

@BA4 how has it been??

Great so far. There's been a steep learning curve for me but its been challenging in a good way.

Ba4 take me with you 😩

I'm 32 and looking to make a career change. Previously I've been in sales, sales QA and some analyst position.

How realistic is it to go from no computer science degree, to getting Salesforce certs and an admin role?

Working on getting CISSP right now; would love to hear any recommendations for study materials if anyone would be willing to share.

I've read the book, have the official prep questions, and about 7 YOE in cybersec but honestly had CCNA and Sec+ in the past and found passing to be more relative to how I'd studied to the test than doing the actual job...

Anyway, open and appreciative of any insight.

Thoughts on Wealth Management as an industry? Offered a role to work under a senior FA and eventually take over the book (~$800M AUM and growing). It sounds great, but I am worried about the disruption this industry is facing with Robo advisors and other low cost, DIY options. I’d want to make sure the clients stay through the transition, and I don’t want to join a dying industry. Thoughts and advice?

One of the reasons I want to transition from industry to consulting (tier 1) is that I get frustrated when I have to collaborate with mediocre people. My assumption is that Tier 1 consulting firms hire really sharp people and if I can get in, I’ll be collaborating with folks on top of their game (not expecting much from clients). I’m aware there are personal aspects I need to work on like my mindset, patience etc etc, but I just get so frustrated with blatant stupidity.
