Hi! I am currently in HR consulting mostly the M&A space but I have experience across all areas of HR. I’ve been wanting to work at Google for years now and I am ready to take the plunge. I was an HR program manager for a large healthcare company prior to joining the consulting world where I managed M&A within Total Rewards. I’ve connected with Googlers in the past, just can’t seem to find anyone in HR to provide insight on the leveling, culture, WLB, and growth. Is anyone willing to connect?

What are some top exits for pre-mba/1-2 yrs post mba consultants into sales functions? For context - I worked as a quota-carrying AE at a tech startup before graduating undergrad and coming to consulting (current BA). Really enjoyed my experience and curious what ex-consultants have done in the sales space (industry agnostic). 🤟🏻

Not applying now but planning the best way of getting there. Thanks!
