Have ~ 8 YoE in consulting mainly transport and infrastructure related.

Applied for M position and had a call with a company who wanted me to join as SC.

Currently unemployed so unsure if i should progress. Any advice?

You’d need to be more specific which company for starters because it depends on that relative to your experience in transport and infra, the substance of the work and how much of a pivot this is for you…

To be clear, not suggesting you stay without a job but important to consider if this is new place is an ideal next step longer term

personally I’d take it with the information you’ve provided here and as long as the pay is in line with what you were on before

Have they articulated the pathway to M or the reason why they are offering SC? Any job is better than no job in my opinion unless you know the market is currently strong for your skillset and you can get a better deal soonish. Also don’t feel like you need to stick it out a couple of years if you find a better job. It’s become more acceptable to switch sooner- just don’t have too many quick switches on your CV.

I think SC can be different levels of seniority in different companies. Main thing when joining is good salary, company, and future prospects

Hi Sharks, I am finding oppurtunity in Mindtree for the Role of Incident Management. Please help me Mindtree

I’m getting put up for manager a year early. I have PPMD ,SM, and M support. Pretty much support from all the key individuals on my team and in my service line. Since it is a year early if i don’t get promoted this round I know it’ll come mid year but I do expect a good salary increase still without the promo. If I don’t get the promo nor a salary increase that I’m okay with, how do I let my partner know that I will begin to entertain outside offers? some of which have offered the manager role.
