Hey 🐟 I’m looking for some career advice via suggestions. I love certain aspects of my job (T2 strategy), but most of the time I feel as though I’m glazing over analysis versus digging deep into a problem, performing rigorous analysis and getting to an objective answer. Has anyone else felt this gap as well? If so, how did you address it? What type of roles did you exit to that scratched the itch?

Figure out whether such problems are in a particular industry/area and then seek out firms that look to invest/take positions in those areas. Hint - PE isn't always the answer. Lots of firms with deep pockets looking for smart people to make smart moves for them in various industries - O&G, commodities houses, alternative credit funds etc

For what it’s worth I love when I get to develop a comprehensive market/financial model and form a strategy around that versus regurgitating research.

Any guidance on career suggestions is greatly appreciated.

Thank you. I’ve considered it, but I’m a post MBA and I’ve heard that’s an uphill battle / tough to lateral.

But they feel that without multiple people in a sales department the title head of sales might not be the best title. I have input in what my updated position title and salary would be. What should I ask for?

The rejection gave me a lot of self hatred. I still really want to clerk. Any advice? What is wrong with me? I feel like a failure.
