Hey! I completed this certification last year, and while you get to learn a lot, not sure if it’s really appreciated by the hiring markets in India yet - I am yet to see any benefits of it in that regard.

Hope this helps!

ESG Strategy Consultant here, this doesn’t add a lot of value for Strategy Consultants. It’s targeted more towards investment managers at financial institutions and M&A advisors who want to learn how to incorporate ESG into their decisions and advice. If you’re in Strategy or Risk, GARP SCR is better value for your time.

I’m with KPMG. My usual client engagements are developing climate strategy and GHG emissions reduction roadmaps for clients in different industries. I also do qualitative and quantitative climate risk assessments which would ultimately feed into TCFD reports, sustainability reports, annual reports and executive decisions around investment strategy and product strategy.

Can a lateral senior analyst get promoted to data scientist in the half yearly cycle if performance and feedback from client is good?

One of the reasons I want to transition from industry to consulting (tier 1) is that I get frustrated when I have to collaborate with mediocre people. My assumption is that Tier 1 consulting firms hire really sharp people and if I can get in, I’ll be collaborating with folks on top of their game (not expecting much from clients). I’m aware there are personal aspects I need to work on like my mindset, patience etc etc, but I just get so frustrated with blatant stupidity.

1. Oracle - 18.3 LPA fixed + probable bonus (I may or may not get)

Amadeus is also giving joining bonus of 75k. Amadeus is paying more, may give better hikes too, but I am finding it hard to let go off Oracle's brand name on my resume even if it's means around 2L less over an year. I am planning to work for atleast 3 years in my next company.

What would you have done in my place? Should I go for Oracle or Amadeus?

Hi, where or what types of companies should sophomores & juniors apply for next summer (2022) to recruit for IB the following summer (2023)? This summer BBs wrapped up SA IB recruitment, EBs even earlier, and a fair amount of my friends missed out big time.

Also, if a sophomore or junior doesn’t get a finance-related summer internship (I.e tech) and aims for an IB SA or FT position, is it harder to break in?

Appreciate any advice and insight, thank you.
