Has anyone used a paid service (resume review, interview coaching) to jump from Big 4 consulting to tech? I’m specifically targeting firms like Google, Amazon, Microsoft and not getting any bites on my apps. Are the fees worth it?

Good consulting books? Not talking case prep but a fun read about the industry and what it takes to succeed, etc. Thank you!

Hello I am looking to pivot careers. I’ve worked in warehousing, shipping and logistics my entire life. I don’t have much experience else where. How do I find the right move to make?

A quick note about what I’ve experienced, in my decade long career, is the real advantage of MBB or FAANG - it gives you a shot at stretch roles that are outside your expertise. Not all the time or even most of the time compared to better candidates with specific experience for the role but gives you this wildcard shot at a vast array of opportunities.

Anyone at BCG willing to take a look at my resume/ cover letter?

Hello,
Can we get promotion after the mid year review in CitiusTech?
Or the promotion for the mid year already done?
I see for many people the designation has changed but for me it's not. I was under the impression that the promotion happens after the mid year discussion or after the year end discussion.
Can someone please tell the details and when we can expect the new revised letter mentioning the new designation.

Hi fishies! Considering an internal big 4 move from Western Europe to Dubai. Not sure about WLB and whether there’ll be enough growth and learning opportunities after reading some of the threads here. Anyone up for sharing their experience? Especially concerned about sexism / racism as a WOC…and whether moving back to Europe in a few years will be difficult because the ME experience won’t be considered valuable.

I’m not naive or fresh out of law school, but I’m at a point where I’m saying to myself “Why can’t I have it all?” I’ve been offered a job for more pay and less hours and I keep thinking to myself, what’s the catch? I know people will say no promotion potential or that’s not how it works…but what if it could? What if you make yourself valuable by still setting your boundaries? Why would we resent someone who has that opportunity?

Thanks for creating this Bowl. Anyone here transitioned from cost engineering into PM?

I have also worked in design engineering and engineering analysis roles. Have a BS in mechanical engineering and a MS in Data Analytics Engineering.

Any folks at EY willing to refer ?

Any MSFT Customer Success Account Managers can give insights into the role and how interviews would be run for it?

Fellow 🐟 any thoughts? Received an offer from Deloitte -> Role Manager, Base 180K HCOL, YOE 8, Current Base -> 150K and may get close to 160K in 3 Months. Is it worth the jump? Pros in current role -> High Visibility due to small practice, 45 to 50 Hr work week. Will be SM in next 2 to 3 Years, Cons - TC, Brand Value, Mid Tier Clients. Any opinions?

Tenured Ms that have gone from tier 2/big 4/ACN to MBB laterally (yes this is happening now) - have you noticed any significantly better exit opps coming through or differences in what recruiters are reaching out for? Curious about this.

Anyone here work at LinkedIn? Interested in learning more about the culture.

I've become really jaded about consulting. I find all so often you need to tell the client what they want to hear to keep their business and I feel like so much of the what I recommend doesn't actually get implemented. I'm looking to make a career switch so I can both create and execute on my strategies. A product management path seems very promising for this.

Does anyone who switched from consulting to product management have any recommendations of h helpful PM books, courses, or programs?
