Hi,
I’m currently working as an Underwriter (Mortgage & Commercial loans) in a Bank and would like to switch to Financial Analysis (FP&A roles). Could you recommend some courses/certifications other than CPA which will help me transition to this role? Thanks.

Any tips from women who had to take maternity leave while contracting? I’d been hoping to switch to a FT role before COVID then well you know...After 3 months I finally landed a couple contract opportunities but no luck yet with a FT role. I’m due in Feb and getting nervous. I know most companies also have a wait period to qualify for leave but am hoping to get hired at a more progressive company or negotiate. Also wondering if I can get unemployment if my W2 contract is set to end by due date?

I’ve got my first CFP course exam on Monday. I’m going through the American College HS300. Any advice or tips? I feel good overall, but still nervous. Thank you.

Hi fishies! Considering an internal big 4 move from Western Europe to Dubai.

Received offer from BCG for ECT AD role. Read numerous comments about ECT being not attractive compared to Generalists track. Also heard challenges about billability/utilization. Any views/guidance is appreciated.

Background - I am not super keen to become an equity partner and comfortable to stay on ECT track. Main reason to join will be opportunity to work with different clients, smart talented people and good brand. I may consider going back to industry after 3-5 years in ECT.

I'm a corporate recruiter with 3 years of experience. Finishing my degree in HRM 5/2022. I'm thinking of getting my SHRM -CP shortly after graduation.

I'm not sure of where to go after that, but I doubt I will stick with recruiting or my current firm.

Has anyone here started off in recruiting and branched out to other HR functions? Do you like your new role? Do you wish you stuck with recruiting?

Hi, I'm almost at the end of NP. I've two offers in hand with different roles and similar packages.

Which one should I go for after considering the pros and cons?
