Has anyone passed the CPA exam just using Ninja?

Hello everyone! My co-worker and I are preparing for the SHRM certification exam and Hoping to take it in December. I’m looking to purchase the SHRM learning system books from someone that has already taken the exam this year. Can someone point me in the right direction?

Is there anyone who works for Google or Amazon and has a healthcare background with no tech skills? I have my MBA with a healthcare concentration and I’m looking to switch industries. I’ve started to take certification courses on Udemy but would love any insight on how I could get my foot in the door with those companies. Thank you!!

One of the reasons I want to transition from industry to consulting (tier 1) is that I get frustrated when I have to collaborate with mediocre people. My assumption is that Tier 1 consulting firms hire really sharp people and if I can get in, I’ll be collaborating with folks on top of their game (not expecting much from clients). I’m aware there are personal aspects I need to work on like my mindset, patience etc etc, but I just get so frustrated with blatant stupidity.

Asking for a friend:
What is the salary range for a Financial Advisory experienced associate at PwC based out of NYC? No MBA but a MS. Considering a move from product to consulting.

A colleague told me today that Google separates Product Manager and Product Owner as two separate roles. I believe that one PM role is preferred in the industry and most modern software companies, especially FAANG companies, only have PMs. Just curious what others have experienced and if I'm correct in my assumption.

I'm currently looking for admin assist jobs that are remote. I was thinking a career in another country. Any advice, any ideas about companies I can apply to?

Hi fishes,
I am in PwC AC Bangalore in management consulting in DDV. Do they reimburse for the CFA level 1 exam? If yes, what could be the clause?

Anyone made a switch to health tech companies? Do you like it?

Currently C level (target promo next summer). Been mostly on finance transformation projects. Worked in strategic finance before that at a f500 healthcare company.
What roles/levels would I be a good candidate for at FAANG/Microsoft/other Big Tech?
No hard technical skills (outside of financial modeling).
I’m also studying for GMAT as t15 MBA is a consideration right now, so I could also try to make the switch after that.

Is there a "too old" stage to pursue a master's? Currently 25, 3 YOE

EYP and Strategy& fishes, what sort of work do you do in the Life Sciences space (specifically Big Pharma)? And what sort of exits into industry have you seen your former colleagues make?

Anyone have any idea when the hiring freeze might end within AWS ProServ? I’m currently at Amazon and have a TS clearance, PMP & CSM. I come from a Big4 consulting firm with a background in Enterprise Performance. I’ll be honest and say I’m not feeling very safe in my current role with the ongoing layoffs. Instead of leaving, I’d love to go back to my “consulting roots” and join the ProServ team. I’m taking my AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner exam next weekend. Hoping this freeze is lifted soon.

I Have a passion for Products/features. Anyone have experience going into a junior Product Owner role?

I’ve been in IT for 10 years. Desktop, NOC, web server implementations, POS, site trainer, now service delivery analyst in fintech world.

I thought about DevOps, but product / UI / Features excites me more. Having technical knowledge helps me communicate with devs, but I also have the people skills / mindset for product.

Just looking for guidance on how to land a product role. Thanks!

I’m worried that my voice, communication style, and body language comes across as too effeminate for our straight clients and peers. I’m transitioning to sales now and am insecure that my personality and appearance may hinder sales gen? Client industry is very old school. Can LGBT partners//Ds/MDs chime in how they managed the same transition?

Will IBM pune match the counter offer for 9 YOE??

I have been looking at the curriculums for Harvard Business School's Master of Business Administration and Harvard Extension School's ALM in Management. They both have the same requirements (generally speaking) including a capstone course that serves as a field immersion course with the Master's in Management, which is fairly new. If I am not able to gain admission to Harvard Business School, but wanted a similar educational experience to become a consultant, should I attend Harvard Extension?

Anyone have recommendations for headhunters placing planners?

A NY agency is asking me to work on site come September, I said of course. My true intentions? Working remotely from Florida for life. How would y’all handle this issue when pandemic is over (if it that ever happens)?

Crowe is hiring for quite a few positions across the US (Internal Audit, IT controls and cyber/digital security, Compliance,etc)… I’m a manager and would think some of these niche areas have great opportunity for new folks to excel rather quickly. Great flexibility and mobility policies. I’d be happy to chat if interested and get you directly in touch with the right people internally.

Received verbal offer for position that I’m considering. Assuming I accept, recruiter advised not to give notice until after clearing background check. I have nothing that would come back on that check, any reason to wait for it to clear? I’d rather give notice before so that I’m giving myself more time off in between jobs... Thoughts?

Would anyone consider their senior colleagues to be their genuine friends?

Teaching Autistic Support via Zoom is so difficult. The behaviors are way worse and there is next to nothing I can do to help my students parents.

Today I have officially made the decision to stop taking any and all cases that involve children. I feel like a huge weight has been lifted!! I just had to share with other professionals that understand. Yes, this will be a financial blow, but I’m fine with it.

Everyone likes me because I'm a doormat with no boundaries. I do anything and say anything to make people happy. I will think what you think I should think. Will you be my friend?

Amen! Any plans tonight? I'm staying in, letting HBO Go melt my brain - been a loooong week.
