Hi everyone - I've been working at Google for 5 years in digital communications & IT transformation strategy for federal, state & local government entities. I'm interested in making a pivot into management consulting as I graduate from Northwestern University's Master's in Public Policy & Administration part-time, evening program this June. Would anyone at McKinsey, Bain, BCG, Oliver Wyman, Accenture, EY, etc. based in the Chicagoland area be open to connecting?

What do you wish you knew before moving to Australia or NZ? Seriously considering applying for an internal transfer but I'd like to know what I'm getting into first. Researching as well just asking for first hand experiences from consultants who have done it.

Any professional engineers turned professors here? What drove you to make that switch and did it work out how you thought it would?

EY TARAS or EY GCR??? Between these 2 service lines which has better pay and opportunities??

Anyone pursued a MSL in Taxation degree? Did it open up additional opportunities? Trying to get into tax planning/structuring but don’t have a JD (not interested in practicing law). Currently CPA/MST.

I'm considering switching my practice from tax to exec comp so that I can work remotely indefinitely. If I dislike it, do you think it would be difficult to switch back? I'm a 4th year that works in biglaw.

At EY, we have different grades for Managers, i.e. Manager 1, Manager 2 and Manager 3. Is this the same at PwC? Also, for Senior Manager too?

Is it possible to go from Finance Compliance to Biglaw? I have 5y Biglaw experience abroad and NY license. Moved to NY for inhouse job in finance but considering moving back after 4y.

What is the market like for entry level data scientists/ data analyst. I have a graduate certificate in data science and have spent the last 27 years as a mainframe dev so I have great SQL skills.

Getting ready to study for the CAMS exam. Do I need anything extra besides just studying the study guide and practice exam over and over. I’ve read online about people using AML assassin; is it worth it?

Looking to make a career move soon. Thoughts on going for an in-house role vs an agency?

Hello! I’ve been in Compliance now Dow approx 6 years and want to make myself marketable. Besides a JD what other masters can I obtain?

Hey! I have applied to an entry level investment associate in a venture capital firm in my country. As part of the process they will send me some real pitch decks and I will need to do 1-pager investment thesis for each one. I have never done that in the past. Can you please guide me? Is there a template or format I should use? Tips & things to be mindful of will be extremely helpful!

This might sound silly but if the job is still posted after you've done your loop, is that an indication the team is still looking? It's day 2 after my loop so excuse my anxiety.
