Hey guys,
I’m not really happy where I work. I have an MBA with over 6 years of experience in banking, capital markets, consulting and currently in a manager role. I’m open to staying in the banking and wealth management industry, but really interested in getting my foot in the door of consulting and technology industries. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Just want to be in an environment where there is a great culture with opportunities to grow. Wish I could tag every company

Hey, as a starting point, I’d say leverage your LinkedIn network. Who do you know in tech or consulting, set up some chats with them. Do research on the diff roles and analyze the transferrable skills you have. Hit up industry events like AfroTech coming up next month…great way to meet lots of Black talent in tech in one place. Hope this helps!

Hi,
I am an Analyst. I have planned to do MSc in Artificial Intelligence or in Data science. What are job opportunities after the course completion? Is it difficult to get a job in Michigan, Texas, Illinois, Loss Angeles, Santiago?

I am project manager in clinical research industry (CRO). After earning PhD, I gave up my science dream to take a more stable job. After slowly climbing the ladders, I feel like I finally got a seat at the table. Half the days I like the hustle, but now I miss being creative. I want to take more brainstorming, decision making responsibilities but I don’t see that in the career path for PM. Career path usually goes like this- Sr PM, Director, Sr Director, and so on. But all do same work.
