Hey fishies, I have a friend who is interested in becoming a consultant but he’s taken an interesting path, would love your advice on any good angles he could take for applying/ types of roles. He has a bachelors in science (chemistry maybe?) from H/Y/P and after undergrad he took a less traditional route and was working as an instructor for things like tennis, piano, snowboarding, etc.. He’s a really smart, personable person who I think would be great in consulting. (Continued)

Anyone here interviewed at or work for Nice? Would like to hear your thoughts/experience. Thanks in advance!

If you completely blow your interview and the recruiter schedules a call to connect, and you know this is a rejection, how do you prepare for that? I can be positive but I know how bad the interview went. It’s one of those where I’d like them to send an email and get it over with. 🤦🏽‍♂️

A company was pretty aggressively recruiting me until 4 interviews in — no movement. I haven’t heard back in a week and a half about next steps. Should I assume I won’t be moving forward any longer? I emailed the recruiter a few days ago to check in, and no response. (She typically replies very quickly and I was told I’m one of the top two final candidates 😕)

Does anyone think it’s a good idea to beg for a job and put your personal life out there to get sympathy, because that is what I am seeing every day on LinkedIn and then the recruiters and everybody will comment and send the jobs and they will end up with a job or interview the next day.
I’m getting close to the point of doing that because it seems like it is working.

New year, new me goal: find a lifetime hobby that doesn’t come with a large recurring cost.

SO and I are quite adventurous where we get outdoors, try new restaurants, paint night, pottery, etc. but these aren’t hobbies.

Thought about:
- golf but suck at it;
- pilot license or fixing hot rods but both damn expensive;
- hunting but don’t wanna die;

Am I just making excuses for myself to not do things?

Open to suggestions on what you do for hobbies, or how to discover this for myself!

Good books for case prep/valuation. Econ consulting, if relevant. TIA
