I'm having a really tough time transitioning my career after going back to school and getting my degree. I've applied to a plethora of jobs and have not even really gotten interviews.

I landed a second interview with the VP of marketing for a marketing coordinator role. They asked for a writing sample. Nothing formal. Even an email explaining something complex in an understanding way is fine. Does anyone have any topics or advice? I appreciate it!!

Hi Fishes

I’m being interviewed for an Associate Partner position. I’ve already been through 3 interviews with positive feedbacks. The recruiter informed me that they are willing to schedule 2 more interviews. Is this normal in IBM? It seems a very vague and slow process in my opinion…

For the past few months of interviewing have made it to the final round with a few firms, and the feedback is similar, ‘I’m a great candidate, but it’s not the right time’ Is this code for something? Am I missing something?

I want to get out of ID so badly. I don’t mind the work but the hours are just killing me. I just started at a new firm less than 6 months ago and I am already desperate to get out. It is not the firm or the people. I just hate the high billables. I have been applying to other jobs but I think I may need a recruiter for help. Any recommendation for a great recruiter in NYC?

The other team, that fits my desires more, now reached out. Same org, two entirely diff departments and I've been in og gig for a month. Stick or ditch? Any advice for a youngin' like me?

How do you deal with imposter syndrome? I'm a new therapist and I work with a bunch of women who have been doing this for ages. They're all really sweet, but I can't help feeling like I'm way out of my league.

Hi
Would love to get your opinion on this-
I am planning on applying to business school this year in round 1 and round 2. I am in india working at D. I have received an offer to work with another big 4 in London as manager with their consulting team starting June. The role is definitely a step up in terms of responsibilities from my current role as a senior consultant. Do you think it might hamper my business school application changing jobs so close to round 1? Have been at D for 4 yrs

Anyone here know how Point B consulting is regarded among the M7 MBA admission? Anyone at Point B and at M7? Sounds like a place with lots of responsibilities early on but not enough name recognition.
