Got my first interview for a Strategy & Operations role at a PE company tomorrow. What can I expect? A case Interview like in consulting?

Hello fishes,

Does anyone knows a good consultancy for non-tech folks? My friend is looking for Marketing role with previous employer being OYO and last role as Zonal Manager.

Thanks in Advance!

How can I check my candidature status? I applied for Ibm, cleared the interview but no offer letter. Is there a way I can track my application on some portal?

Does IT companies fake job roles like they show development role while attending interview but after joining they give support.Why they don't hire separately for support?Is this because nobody wants to work in support they make job description attractive to make employees join?

Anyone can help/guide for Engineering Manager interview preparation for Amazon. Any past interview experience please share it will be a great help.

Looking for switch into consulting..

Any help appreciated.

I have a friend who is currently a Quality Engineer in pharma and looking to make a career switch into a role in commercial. Their undergrad was in Biology and they have 10+ YOE. Will they need to go back to school to make the switch, or will recruiters be willing to give them a shot based on their “unique” background?

Can anyone help one of my friend with referral in Wells Fargo ?

I had an interview that scheduled for Wednesday with a non-profit called Casa Maryland. We set up the interview day LAST FRIDAY. They seemed to be genuinely interested. They approached after supposedly seeing my profile on LinkedIn. They informed me about compensation, job responsibilities, etc. They then asked me to send the my actual CV and I did. The CV basically mirrors my LinkedIn but has more details. Now they just emailed me that they filled the position. Im so demoralized I can’t even...

Anyone in UAE thinking of applying for the Green visa?

At this moment, I am almost depressed. I am in a relationship with this guy for 2 years now. In the past 2 years, we have fought more than we have lived days with peace. We both have high ego problems because of which it’s really hard to resolve a conflict. Things have recently escalated to calling names/swearing and even physically abuse from both sides. We both want to end the relationship, have tried so many times, but we cannot.

Anyone interviewed with Capgemini UK ? I have a second stage interview with them next week and the only thing I’m told by the recruiter is that it’ll be a case interview with behavioural questions and everything will be told to me at the interview.
The case interviews I am used to are when I was given a problem statement before hand and I had to come up with the presentation. This is a bit different .

Can anyone advise please ?

Folks on the job hunt - do you feel like more companies are trying to fill open roles before the end of the year or waiting til 2021 to hire new headcount?

I’m a PE ops VP at a larger fund. Currently making $350k cash comp with about $1M carry at work per fund. Realistically, what would I be looking at in terms of cash/carry comp increase if I were to be promoted up one level (one below partner).

Which MF values their Ops team? Hear a lot about “getting treated like second class citizen.” Does that just mean they get paid slightly less (and also work much less I heard), or are they actually not valued by the deal team?

While I am on track for promotion at my firm, I am not in the “top bucket” of all performers. Will this make it impossible to get offers in PE? Or can I still target some firms (ex MM-LMM)?

Have a first round interview with the VP of Talent Management at a PE fund tomorrow. What kind of questions should I expect? Would it be more technical or more focused on discussing my background and interest in PE and the firm? TIA!

Joined an UMM fund a few months back and things have been pretty lax and we haven’t pursued a new platform yet. I haven’t really got to fully own a workstream yet and instead am more task focused and just do what my VP tells me. It feels a lot different than BCG where it was all about ownership and I’m worried I’m falling behind the learning curve. Any folks have a perspective to share on this?

Is it a good time to move into PE now with the current environment? How will increasing interest rates affect working in the space from a personal perspective?
