Depends how good you are at selling yourself but I'd have thought at least 4-5 roughly. Not everyone in industry (at least in larger/ prestigious places) looks up to the big 4 etc quite as much as people in those companies thinks 🤔

Its like Oxbridge- a nice to have, maybe might get you some credit and an interview but ultimately not a decision maker vs someone else with more experience etc

Hey guys,
I’m currently a quality control analyst in the biopharma/gene therapy field making 72k base in the Houston area. I’ve been working here for 2 years and my company is well established and the job is easy, but I honestly just want higher pay. I see companies (smaller and larger) that potentially can give me that but would it be worth it? I’m having a hard time finding out what opportunities/paths I can take and what amount of $ would be worth moving jobs for. Any insight is appreciated!
