Guy,

How can I get into Microsoft without an MBA in a Program manager role?

I am currently an Associate Product Manager. Overall Exp 4yrs.

Is it possible to get in or MBA is a must...

I have worked in marketing for about 6-7 years. First few years were in social media management. My goal is to work at a big tech company.

I’ve heard mixed results about the ROI of earning an MBA. My near future goal is to move into a Marketing Director (or senior manager) role.

1) How much does Google, Amazon, Microsoft, etc. value MBAs in the hiring process?

2) Anyone currently working at the companies above with only a BBA?

Current situation: Marketing Manager, 90k, NYC.

Hi, just wondering how the staffing situation has been in strategy consulting in general? My sibling started a job in strategy in Silicon Valley 2 months ago after MBA. She has been on the bench for 2 months and was informed that there has been a shortage of jobs (within the job) and the amount of people on the bench is getting high. She has been under a lot of stress although she had many great networking calls with people. I wanted to help but can't identify what she can improve on.

Hey guys, I have the first short 15-minutes call with a product guy from Hugging Face today wherein he is likely going to take a guess at what roles I could be suitable for. I had applied for Post-Sale Machine Learning solutions Engineer. Is there anyone who’s gone through the process for a similar role at similar organisations or best case scenario would be if anyone has gone through the process with HF.
I have been working for a year and am doubtful if I’m mature enough for the role. Help lol

Anyone familiar with Steampunk? They are based out of McLean and doing human centered innovation work for gov clients. Any insight into their culture and how they work would be much appreciated!@Steampunk

I'm studying proton therapy (radiation) and it's the most amazing thing I've ever seen. The fact that we can target tumors with so much accuracy is incredible

Why are we not treating the Hunter Biden / Ukraine connection like the scandal that it is? The media dragged Trump through the mud on foreign collusion lies for months but wont touch this blatantly obvious case. Media is the enemy of the modern society

Was told I am a low performer today and need to improve or I am terminated. I have roughly 3 months to find a new job right?

Thoughts on BCG Toronto?

What is annual salary increase for SA at Alvarez and Marsal? I applied for director role but offered SA since I have extensive industry experience but no prior consulting. I was offered additional compensation paid out over first year but concerned the annual increase will be less than the first year additional pay. If 15% increase reasonable for SA or only with promotion?

What books would you recommend for someone wanting to get better at sales?

I want to put together a XD file with a whole bunch of helpful web and app components for other designers to just drag and drop. 1. Is this a waste of time due to the market being saturated? 2. Where do I sell it? 3. Is there anything I need to know first?

Any possibility to get points for hotel not sending bill? Nights still haven't showed up in my account and I checked out May 26th and submitted the missing nights form.

P&T is ‘central to our FY23 strategy’ and yet we had to beg and plead to even get a handful of P&T Directors to represent at the Director CLeX happening this week in San Diego.

Not feeling the ‘one firm’ narrative we push - completely tone deaf and sends a horrible message for P&T Directors.

Major missed opportunity to start bridging the divide - particularly at a level where the real work gets done.

Hey, guys! Need one suggestion. I'm 2022 btech passout from tier 3 college. My current ctc is 5.5 lpa in Harman , working in an automotive devision with a role of devpr(mostly the work is in c++ and linux). I have a average coding skill.

I have to increase my pay from 5.5 to atleast 30 in next 3 yr

Welcome to the 30s and 40s singles bowl! Here’s to hoping the posts in this bowl are a bit more mature. Relying on the honor system here, try not to lie about your age.

Welcome all 😊

I have made this bowl to help UX/UI Designers to help each others. Feel free to add designers into our bowl.

Hi 👋. I posted here a few weeks ago about being nervous conducting a PIP conversation with my team member.
I did it this week and let me just say it was the weirdest conversation ever. The guy is usually argumentative and tries to disprove every bit of feedback. But this time he just sat there and asked no questions and said nothing.
Maybe he’s looking for new jobs already - don’t mind this at all and this would be a good outcome for him overall.

Dress code for HBS interview day when I am not interviewing that day?

Anyone who can share their experience with the Harvard Extension School?

In one month is my mid term review.. Should I let my mentor know I'm applying for mba this year now or should I wait till after the review session? I'm afraid mentioning going to b school would hurt my "fast promotion". What's your guy's experience? :)

Do GRE essay scores matter as much?

Best GMAT study materials?

Better for tech: Harvard MBA/MS joint degree or GSB MBA only

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!

Would it be realistic to aim for Tuck with 3 years Risk Advisory experience, 3.39 dual degree undergrad at top 20 liberal arts college and 710 gmat?

2 friends from college just stayed up with me for 4 hours to make last minute edits to my horrid Wharton essays. Admit or ding I’m grateful to have friends like this in my life.

Was whitelisted by HKS last year (wanted to pursue an MPP in combination with Wharton MBA I was accepted to earlier). Plan to reapply this year as I deferred Wharton anyway. Any tips from replicants? I mean, if I was whitelisted - to what degree should I change my essays and strategy now? 👀

Hey everyone - applying in R2 this year to Harvard, Stanford, Booth and Kellogg.

Graduated in 2017 from a top state school, GPA 3.88 and GRE 321 (quant 162, verbal 159) w/ 5.5 writing score. Asian female at a Big 4, worked in healthcare consulting and was fast track promoted in 1 year before switching into strategy/innovation consulting. Trying to pivot to VC and eventually raise my own VC firm targeting underrepresented founders.

What are my chances? Thanks!

If anyone needs bschool admissions interview help, feel free to DM me. I’ve helped dozens of candidates get into their top choices over the years and feel like I can help a lot more of you based on the questions being asked. Not offering pro bono services but significantly discounted. Hmu!

Rejected by HBS and GSB post interview... feeling pretty low. Was hoping I'd get one after interviewing. Not sure what I could have done differently. 750 GMAT, >3.8 GPA from top 10 UG, multiple promotions, strong recs, well-known employer. The process feels so random... I know there are so many qualified candidates and so few spots but I wish they had seen it in me.

I’ve interviewed at Tuck, Ross, and Fuqua — is it common to get rejected at all the schools you interview with? And if so, does that mean your application was strong but your interview gave them pause? To be clear I haven’t heard any decisions yet, just anxiety

Do you think campuses will open up this summer for on campus tours?

I already sent my scores to Sloan through ETS but decided to not submit scores. I see a “delete” option in the app- will that ensure adcoms doesn’t know that I ever sent in a score?

Anyone applying/applied with a lower GPA? Seems like everyone had above a 3.5 would love to hear the success of others

Does anyone else find it absolutely hysterical that people group MBB/FAANG/PE/VC for the prestige-oriented folks and they never include BB IB 🤣

Anyone have advice on how to approach a re-applicant essay asking what you’ve done since you last applied? My only update is a promotion…

Submitted cbs with ea score. Jheez. Yet to take the gmat for the other schools 😭
