Hiya! I was wondering if anyone here has any good recommendations in terms of books or learning material that I can pick up to learn about sales and marketing relevant to the consulting industry?

Hi all!

Seeking advice on job titles.

I'm looking for roles that have aspects of event strategy & marketing. I have experience doing both and would like to continue on that path but I struggle with what titles to look for. Company suggestions are appreciated as well! Is there a role out there that would allow me to work with clients and plan their event/marketing strategy?

Had anyone worked as an in-house counsel in a startup and then moved to a law firm or another company? Was wondering how the transition looks like after working in a startup. Will it be hard to find a job in a midsize company later? Thank you!!

I have recently stepped into a contract role for T-Mobile, and walked away from a full time hire in a stable telecom operations role at another company. Is this a good move to work as a contractor? I have never done this before and instability is my worry. The money is better but is it worth not knowing how long this contract will keep renewing?

Does anyone know of any effective study guides for the ESOL praxis exam? Looking for some additional resources, besides the materials from ETS. Thanks!

So I’m considering to go back to school for my master in Engineering or Data Science next fall. Which is a 1.5 years program. However this current job crisis got me scared. What if I can’t get a job once I graduate? Will the job market come back to normal by 2025 👀

I feel like we’re going downhill. I might just move to Brazil and live with the Amazonian tribe at this point.

Considering switching from federal tax to international? Has anyone done so and what has been your experience?

Hello everyone.

Hello! I recently finished a Master of Public Health from the University of Waterloo and I’m currently working as a Policy Analyst for the federal government. I’m really intrigued by healthcare consulting and would love to learn more about Canadian opportunities for that if anyone is willing to chat!

I’ve been working as an estate planning attorney in State A for the last 4 years. My husband just got his dream job (very high paying, lots of career opp for him) in State B. We’re still deciding what makes most sense for our family, but we’re leaning toward heading to State B. Anyone have any experience with this - moving states when EP can be so state specific? I’m worried how I’ll market myself/find a new job/start over.

Quickly write a reason why I should be a patrolman and not go to another position in the police force.

How is the growth and exit opportunities for Finance and Shared Services Outsourcing advisory teams in Big 4?

Thoughts on product management vs strategy consulting?

Anyone available for fit prep tomorrow at 5 pm est?

I spent two years freelancing and landed my first full time position in April! I'm grateful and super excited, and now that I've achieved this goal I'm wondering what actions or habits I need to take at work to put my self in a position to eventually be promoted to senior engineer or possibly into a management or principal role down the line? Any advice, resources or critiques are appreciated!

My manager had been saying some REALLY over the line stuff in standup meetings. Truly inappropriate details about his sexuality and also some stuff about my religion etc. We (the software developers) told HR. They spoke to him and he stopped being a weirdo but the company never addressed it further with us. Is that normal? I’ve never been a part of an HR investigation before and I don’t know what to expect

I am interested in your opinion about Rust. Recently been learning it on the side and just wanted to ask the community how popular do you think the language is? Have you encountered much opportunities to use it on the job ? Do you think it has much of a future, especially compared to more popular ones such as Python, Java, C++ ?

Hi fishes, I am currently working as a data engineer and wish to switch to data science. How can I make this switch? Is there any degree/course that I can do?

Is it a nice idea to be close to your employees?

I see Accenture MDs sometimes refer to themselves as partners and I often see that title on LinkedIn. Are there MD levels in Accenture that are equity partners like B4 or is it just Andersen hangover?

Partners, were you always recognized as a top performer throughout your career?

Any articles or books on maintaining a trusted client relationship? OR any pointers towards doing that?
One consistent feedback I receive is that I don't follow through on client relationship. I build tremendous trust and good will during an engagement, but I let the relationship die out once we wrap the work out. OR It is luke warm at best with a periodic email once in a while, unable to introduce people or grow the relationship.
Any help?

Partners, is it okay to send a deliverable without your review?

This is meant as a compliment to your superior ability to balance your life: How do partners have time for fishbowl? It seems so small compared to yalls lives?

Partners - in your opinion and based on what you have seen, what’s a better time to exit consulting - as a partner to a CXO role or as a Partner (-1) / Associate Principal to a VP/SVP role, if someone wants to maximize growth and retire (relatively) early? Also, what’s a dream consulting exit these days- tech, startup or large company?

How difficult is it to start cold as a new partner at a new firm? With regard to not having a reliable network to fall back and having to build a new team. Is it an terrible idea? TIA

Does Deloitte offer PPMDs a sign on bonus for direct admits? I have heard yes and no. Asking for a friend. 😎

Partners, how do you invest your money? Wife works in tech and pulls in as much as me, getting into good bonus money this year, between the two of us around $300k. Both of us max out our 401ks...

how does one make sure the client does not send out an RFP ? I am assuming once u build the level of trust with the client you make it all single sourced and keep the competition out.

If EY goes public, would existing partnership agreement terms/conditions basically cease? In other words, would a PP’s new ownership (in the form of stock) essentially mean that most (if not all) prior terms (e.g. a forced retirement age) go away?

Partners / MDS - Have any of you stayed with the same firm from analyst to Partner/MD? If so, what made you stay despite probably receiving offers for more compensation? Also, what benefits are there to staying in consulting your entire career?

Spend so much time managing people’s feelings and mood to get work or get work done. So exhausting, I am ok with machines replacing us all.
