Hi ladies! I'm starting at a big 4 firm this summer doing legal consulting work. Any advice for me? How can I better position myself to ensure that I become manager in a decent amount of time? Thanks a bunch!

Best advice I can give you is to speak up about your goals and ask for concrete steps for how to get on track. You're not going to get anywhere by simply doing good work, you have to put yourself out there and make your intentions clear to those who can help you get there.

Hi,
I had call with the HR for he position based out of Mumbai everything in interview and they are ready to share the offer. however, I quoted for 10 lakhs and they said for fixed pay of 8.75.
Although, i checked on Google as well average pay they are giving is 9.7 lakh
So should I accept the offer as per their negotiation or shall positively tell them why 10 lakh is justified?

For someone who only has experience in project management, what’s another role or industry that would be good to consider and uses similar skills for a career pivot?
I’m getting a little bored and want to do something different, but not sure what that could be, or if I should look into getting certificates or higher education. Any former PMs, what do you do now and how did you get there?

Has anyone ever posted a general marketing position? We have an open position on our marketing team but we are unsure what type of position to offer. We have a wide variety of needs but don’t necessarily need to have this future person have all these skills. For example we need someone with great copywriting skills and also need someone who is great at digital marketing. This person doesn’t necessarily need to have both skills but if they did great, but if only one, great too.
