Has anyone moved from a Consulting role to a Program/Project/Product/Operations Manager for something like a Music Label, TV/Film, or anything in Media & Entertainment? I’m a 2+ year Senior in Financial Services Consulting and I really want to make the switch since I’m passionate about music and film. I have all the core qualifications needed for the job postings. I’m just finding it kind of hard to get an interview without any specific media & entertainment exposure...

Hey Fishes,
Been working at D India as a Manager (Not USI) for past few months.
Ask me anything as there are very few reviews available online.

Hi everyone,
I have an upcoming Product Manager interview with BCGDV. HR told me it would be a 45 minutes Zoom call with a Product Director.

Thank you so much!

Trying to have faith but my recent cycle netted 16 eggs, 8 fertilized and only 2 made it to day 5 for testing. There were 3 others that just didn’t mature. This is my third cycle and I’ve been pretty positive up until today. It’s especially hard to get this news in the middle of a work day. Just tired, still bloated and not feeling all that hopeful as we enter this LONG wait until we get the results next week. I hate feeling like this knowing my chances are getting slimmer by the day.
