Hi folks, I'm currently an HSW MBA student starting my 2nd year and I want to recruit for PE full time roles in the US.

Pre-MBA, I was a top performer consultant and I'm currently doing an internship in investing (but not PE). Hence, I expect my recruiting to be very hard

I would love to find a coach who can guide me in the process, from reaching out to headhunters, networking strategy, technicals prep, behavior, etc. Any recommendations? Highly appreciate any help.

People joining TCS at Senior Consultant designation with 12 years exp, with no MBA degree or even from with exceptional experience in niche technologies is truth these days.

Existing employees with 20 years exp working on presales consulting, winning millions of dollars of projects in RFPs, delivering multi million dollar assignments are still not getting promoted and paid in peanuts

Makes me wonder if companies are really enjoying so called great resignation period. What's the thought ?

New York folks:
Are you aware of the CPA exam credit extension to 2021 for NY CPA candidates impacted by COVID19? It’s on a person-by-person basis and you need to request the extension.

The extension would really help me, but I’m not sure what more to tell them in my email than the fact that I couldn’t sit for the exams this Spring/Summer due to test centers closing in NYC.

Hi everyone, I joined a start up where I joined as an intern and moved on to be a Business Analyst.

I'm currently involved with improving the Indian branch of the company

Curious what others think about this: a friend of mine has a couple of months of leave this fall to study for the CPA exam (they’ll be paid a reduced salary during their leave), but they mentioned they have no intention of studying for the exam, and instead plan to use that time to look for another job. This rubs me the wrong way, but wanted to hear what others think…
