Hi everyone!! This is exactly the group I've been looking for. I'll be starting my new (and first) consulting job at ZS Associates at the end of the month and I'm so nervous that I'll crash and burn. I'm very proud to be an ENFP, but the flaws that come along with it (distraction, procrastination, disorganization) seem like a recipe for disaster. I'm not sure if I should spend this next month trying to change my habits or if I should just embrace it. Anyway, what advice do you all have?

Looking to pivot into healthcare consulting. I come from a MHA background with a two year Administrative Fellowship following it. Any experience breaking into one of the top consulting firms with this type of background?

Working in Risk Management, looking into the FRM exams. Does anyone have any insight or advice?

What is the best way to find a job at a startup? I’ve been in a major Fortune 200 company for the past 6 years, and I am looking for a change to the startup career path to build companies from the ground up.

Hi everyone Kindly let me know which is the best out of these two

Currently in audit and want to switch to transaction services. I’m a senior now and an offer from accounting advisory just came in. I tried applying to TAS but no returns from it. Will it be easier to switch to TAS from accounting advisory?

Has anyone gone from a federal gov’t employee to private industry? I’m considering making the swap for better pay, I make decent money where I’m at and I know I have job security. Just trying to see if there is anyone else that was bold enough to make the leap.

I'm currently a Scrum Master that is looking to make an exit! I have a new profound love for data! However when looking at the salary for data analytics, it appears that I would have to take a pay cut. I currently make 123k in the state of NC...any insight? Should I transition to Data Engineering instead?

My background is in tech transactional. I joined a cybersecurity SaaS startup at the end of last year and now also handle more generalist matters in addition to all things commercial-related. I have a number of books on contracts that I’ve found super helpful over the years (The Tech Contracts Handbook, A Manual of Style for Contract Drafting, Sign Here, etc.). Can anyone recommend books they’ve found helpful for L&E matters, privacy matters, product matters, or marketing/advertising matters?

I have a job offer for 3 months that pays 25% more than my current job. It is more into civil engineering and I think the experience I get will help getting more job offers in the future. Can someone give me more advice if I should stay in my current job which I hate or take the offer and look for something at the same time.

Hi Everyone,
I need your views and suggestions. I have two doubts:
1. Is it fair to leave an organisation (big brand) after a year as the environment is real toxic and there’s no career growth as well in terms of good work.
2. If I have to make a switch do I really have to target big brands only or can try for medium and small size companies too.

Is it a wise decision to move from big4 to WITCH companies or mid sized product companies like Arrow electronics, Emerson just for the sake of pay rise. In my current company, I don't have any issue but just have a thought that a switch is needed to move up the ladder . Infosys Deloitte Tata Consultancy PwC Cognizant Capgemini

Did you choose to work in the private sector or academia? Why?

What would you do?
My company contracts a web developer, we have a set amount of hours for the quarter and pay over if more work is needed.
He never gets anything done. Doesn’t answer emails half the time. The one thing he’s done was take out a blurb that threatened our eligibility for patent renewal.
We have another company taking over in January, but I still have some pretty important dev needs until then and I can’t get him to do a thing. I truly try to give him all he needs.

How flexible is Deloitte with the start date because of H1b processing time? I signed the offer mid-may for July 12 because it seemed realistic enough for premium H1b transfer. But the lawyers seem slower than what I was used to and July 12 does not seem likely. Is this going to be a problem?

Hi ENFPs!

What do you do when you’re in a new city by yourself (for work)? Do you explore activities / restaurants / etc. solo? What’s your approach, especially given the short timeline for a study?

Interested to see this group... is ENFP a particularly difficult personality for consulting? Or is there a lot of us? Intrigued as to what has triggered this bowl creation

ENFPs! Halloween is just SEVEN WEEKS AWAY... what are you going to be??? 🕷👻🎃

How many here also have ADHD?

So glad this is a thing. The McKinsey ENFP email list rocks so hopefully our non-McKinsey ENFP friends will benefit from this type of “support group” as well

ENFP plus Pioneer-Integrator here. Anyone else? For the non-Deloitte people, Biz Chemistry is like our own little Meyers Briggs

Real question no Sarcasm pls...
How do you stay focused when you have so many things to do? I write list but can get distracted by the sound of the AC! help and practical tips please 😊

Extraversion. Intuition. Feeling. Perceiving <3

Hi ENFPs! Would love to hear your tips on how you handle this. I get great feedback on people based things (client, team coaching), but continually pushed on drilling deeper (cont.)
