Hi Everyone, fairly new to Dallas and Texas in general (<1 year). Looking to network with other local professionals as I’m interested in learning more about consulting and pursuing a career in this area.

What’s your long term goal, both career and personal and how you came to that goal??

Hi, I’m looking for a career change and I’m interested in Sales development roles in the IT sector. Due to a lack of network, it seems very difficult for me to target jobs as per my choice and to get a skill set that companies look for. Feel free to respond to this thinking.

Thoughts on getting an EMBA? I understand the trade offs between part time and full time, curious on your views on them.

Ntt data vs EY gds? Which is better?

I’ve been working in consulting (mostly real estate tech) for a few years. Also have a few years in foreclosures as an attorney.

Anyone have leads on possible staff attorney roles? Looking for a change. Not going for partner anywhere.

Thoughts on IBM technology consulting? I’m interested in working with legitimate technology which I don’t think I could get at Big 4.

So I am currently trying to figure out what my options will be when I leave the military. I have over 14years of recruiting experience. I have developed new never worked territories, and have target recruited for everything from cyber to mechanics. I was also a trainer responsible for over 90 recruiters in seven states and four countries. What type of work should I be looking for as I get out. I do have a bachelors in human resources

Looking for recruiting firms to help me find my next project / program management role.

Struggling to determine which firms can help with PM roles AND I'm struggling to get the ones I do find to respond to me. It may have something to do where I'm at in my career - 15+ years of PM experience & director-level roles at my last 2 companies - so more exec level but not quite C-Suite. Have tons of one-off recruiters hitting me up on LinkedIn about contract PM roles but that's not what I want.

I’m just curious — I’m still an early career professional and was looking into university career programs for potential development within a financial company I work for. I spoke to a recruiter who said they are typically geared towards recent graduates.

Are there any types of programs out there that may also consider other individuals seeking to develop their careers?

Transition to HRBP - which Cert? I’ve got the time and experience (mostly) to sit for the PHR or SHRM-CP. What are your recommendations based on industry experience. Also note I’m pivoting from a program director role.

So to everyone staying in the newly rebranded DAT, I'm curious what you think our long-term exit ops will looks like. Under RA it was possible to leverage some work in ICRS or non-audit clients as "consulting work" but we're basically losing that bridge as far as I understand. I'd like to still think there's opportunities outside of just IT Audit waiting for me but have my doubts.

After 5 years as an AE / Sales Manager, what are the next possible career paths?

I love sales and wish I could stay as an individual contributor, but I feel like I am not getting anywhere with the salary i want, and the job itself I feel isn't using all of my potential/skillets (plus I'd like to learn and put into practice more).

So I'm really keen to hear from others what steps they took in their career to get into roles they love doing now but still within the sales side of an organisation.

How long a break is considered a career gap?

can i be hired as a valuation senior 1 with four years of assurance experience and one year of bval experience? after 4 years in consulting assurance i left for bval and worried they won’t promo me to senior after 1 year exp.

Considering a switch to pharmaceuticals-specially have interest and skills in patient advocacy but only non-profit hospital/healthcare experience. What is important to know to break into the industry?

Is it worth it to get a professional certification like SHRM/PHR? Not many of my colleagues have one and it’s not a requirement for my role, but I’m curious if it’s worth it in the long run

Can start as Associate at BCG in Sept (w/ all campus hires), Oct, or Nov. Can anyone share if there’s any material pros/cons to starting in November? I personally can’t think of any other than missing PE front office recruiting.

Follow up post to my last post…My husband was laid off from the company where I also work. I am feeling really isolated / depressed about working and moving forward. I’m also getting to a stage where I’m really sad that people haven’t reached out to either my husband or myself to send well wishes or provide support. It’s like they don’t know what to say or I make them feel awkward so they don’t bother…I’m trying to focus on a few that have been supportive but it’s hard…Any words of advice? 😞

I don’t know what’s wrong with me, but I bought like 10 bitcoin back in 2013 and sold them for minimal upside soon after and have some sort of weird seller’s remorse and emotional block from regaining some exposure when I honestly think that’s the rational thing to do. Thoughts? Sadly feel the same way about index funds I sold too during covid...

As part of relocation,LTI is giving Rs. 4350 per person from base location (my previous company ofc location let’s say it location A) to ofc location (LTI Ofc let’s say it location B).
Since I’m in my hometown(let’s say it location C).
So can I book train from A to B & cancel it later and submit the booked bill to get it reimbursed as I have to anyway travel from C to B but LTI only reimburse if I travel from A to B?
Kind of fraud but is it allowed or bills are scrutinised and I may be at risk?
