Hi

I am finishing my last semester as a business student at McMaster university. I have 16 months of business analyst experience from my internship at the MTO. I also have 14 months of sales experience and a combine 2.5 years of customer service experience. I can't seem to find an entry level job as I find many companies wanting 5+ years of experience which I think is ridiculous for an entry level job. I was wondering if anyone has any advice on getting an entry level job.

Has anyone left a wire house to go completely hourly fee based, and run your own financial consulting business? Is this a stupid idea or is it feasible?

How common are career changes / pivots? Can’t help but feel behind now that I’m considering a change and makes me feel alone. Not sure how to go about making the change (finance to marketing)

Hi all, I am a renewable energy m&a professional with experience executing buy and sell side m&a transactions on behalf of institutional and strategic clients.

Need advice. How bad is it to go from “forensics” to Sox. Pay is going to be higher. My ideal situation would’ve been to work in investigations/payments/fraud but I’ve not gotten any interviews. Probably just taking it for higher pay and I wouldn’t mind the boring aspect of it.

Is the CPA designation worth it? For me it would take me 1 year of PREP courses and 2 years of PEP until i can write the CFE. And I am 27 years old right now. Also wondering if it would be crazy to pursue the CPA while learning how to code to be a developer as well?

Hi all. I’m looking into potentially transitioning to PE with a background in Finance Transformation consulting @KPMG of 4yrs. Do I stand a chance? Any advice on how to best approach this would be super helpful, thanks.

I have been searching for job from quite a long time and all I have seeing HR/Panels asking for
1. Number of implementation projects done.
2. Work experience on S4 Hana.

And if I don't have atleast any one of these, I will not be considered.

Is it really that important ?

Being joined as a fresher - Is it really something that I can decide whether to be in support or implementation project ?

Is upgrading of ECC to S4 Hana in my hands ? And the difference is really that vast ?

After spending 4 years as a mid-level ops manager, I tried to break into HR through talent acquisition. Now after 6 years in TA, I've had a hard time getting out of it. My goal was always to get into a more broad HRBP position, but I've since worked for smaller orgs without a solid HR career path. When I ask about my career goals, they keep telling me, "Soon!" Or "Maybe in 6 months!"

I wanted to get people's opinions on leetcode, codewars etc when prepping for interviews. I am a junior full stack dev looking to move to a better paying junior role or a mid role and honestly these style of questions have always stumped me. I have found that in a year of work to have never found them useful in tackling real world issues. Now I'm moving from a junior to a mid can I still expect leetcode style questions?

I am a Financial & Strategy Consultant (15+ yrs exp in Banking, Climate/Project Finance & Strategy Consulting) with a pending EB-2 NIW case. I got a request for additional evidence from USCIS. Most of my letters are from known experts. They want me to submit independent expert letters from people who can talk about the significance of my work to the Financial & Management field and US interest, from non-familiar persons. Anyone willing to write me an expert opinion letter highlighting above?

Thoughts on “special” salary grades. I just found out the VP I was offered is not a grade 12 like most comparable roles (verified). Also not an 11, but an 11A. Slightly higher than an 11, a good bit lower than a 12. All due to the fact that it’s a leap from my current position. Why should that matter…..shouldn’t it pay what it should pay if I am selected, rather that curving down towards my current rate?

Hi there 👋

👨🏻‍💻 My name is 𝐊𝐚𝐳𝐮𝐤𝐢, and I’m currently a 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐠𝐫𝐚𝐦 𝐌𝐚𝐧𝐚𝐠𝐞𝐫 at Remo, which is a fancy way of saying I make sure that the company runs in the most efficient way possible.

Returned from maternity leave, I was offered a Revenue Operations Project Manager. I was given a 4% raise (next to nothing), I was asked to sign the paperwork upon my return which was strange. On day 1, got to know almost 4% raise was given to the entire company as compensation adjustment due to inflammation. The manager left the company within 4 days of my joining and now I’m stuck with the sad pay and a hefty job. Not sure what I should be doing?

Feeling frustrated. Accepted a new position a few months ago. Due to company guidelines I only received a small increase. There was no negotiating. I am now Realizing that my direct reports are making considerably more than me. (20-30% more). Curious as to strategies others have used in discussions with their leadership to address similar pay issues without ruining the relationship with leadership
