Got a job offer from Gartner for “Client Partner.” As much as I dislike Capgemini (currently a grade A at Cap probably get promoted in 6 months), I think I’m going to reject the offer because I’ll be only working with 1 big client at that Gartner role which may hinder me from learning; and if I move to Gartner it’d be another 2 years before a potential promotion which will look bad for my MBA app. Am I going to regret my decision? FOMO is kicking in 😞

IMO client partner is a big huge step up from Grade A/B/C so kind of surprising unless you mean you are a top end (Grade A) senior manager

@CG1 principally you’re directionally accurate but I have seen grade b/c in solutions and sales, though very uncommon

Is the money better? Cap benefits aren’t that good and depending on what practice you are in, promotions are all over the wall.

When did you start at cap? This will give me a better idea of promo time.

Hello Fishes,

So far I received offers from PwC India, Capgemini and Lexmark for Data Engineering.

More are in pipeline from KPMG GS, TechM, Accenture.

But one peculiar thing is happening. I have appeared for 4 Cognizant interviews but in all I have been rejected. Whereas most of my friends had easily cleared Cognizant. I am switching tech, so I am a bit concerned like whether my knowledge is too shallow😐

Is it sign of an Imposter Syndrome 🥺
