Hey guys, I just found this group and I’m hoping for some guidance/advice! I’m hoping to get into one of the Big 4s or MBB and finally got a few referrals once joining FB. I am 29, have an MA in IOP, and 10 YEO. I have never worked for a non-Jewish company (despite trying pretty damn hard to get out) and I’m freaking out. I have no concept of normal professionalism, strategy for navigating the workplace and the real world in corporate USA,(cont. in comment)

(cont.) how to prep for the interviews and case assignment, and so much more. I feel so unprepared and I’m terrified. I want to finally become a normal professional and I want to do well. Any tips/advice?

Hi there, sounds like mostly normal jitters. I am from IO also, feel free to DM.

Now is a good time to position yourself and apply. Look up how to form up your CV, ideally get a referral, youtube or ask about interview processes and practice.

Also, have some ideas about what work experience you might be looking for.

I really appreciate it. Will reach out now :)

I’ve been applying for jobs and internships in my field (looking for jobs in media production, social media, music, entertainment) for months with no luck. They say it’s about connections, but my connections are limited especially in these fields. I am constantly ghosted by recruiters and managers on LinkedIn. I have film PA experience, but other than that my background is in retail. Any advice going forward?
