How do I join Bain as an Associate straight out of college after graduation. Is having a degree from the top DU Colleges the only way? 🥲.

I always wanted to get into consulting and MBB firms to be more specific. But I always get rejected.

I currently work as an Tax Analyst in EY GDS. If anybody can help me out with it then please do.
I'd be grateful to you.

Joining a group that specializes in incident response. Any recommendations on things I can do this summer to prepare on fundamentals/certs?

I’m a manager in PwC’s human capital practice. I’m getting recruiting messages from the other Big 4, as I imagine most of us are. I’m interested in hearing about human capital consultants who went from PwC to one of the other firms, as well as people who came from one of the other firms to PwC. Happily ever afters as welcome as horror stories here. Thanks!

Fish who have been feds,

I have been stuck deciding between two offers (both in IC, but one is more program analysis -similar to consulting work but on the fed side, and actual analysis).

The program analysis offer is at a higher GS level and a more well known agency, but is not what I’m interested in.

Does anyone have any advice on how to make a decision? Go with what I want to do, or go with the more well known agency and higher gs?

Is there any kind of consulting/advisory job for those with science degrees (chemistry) + accounting degree + year experience in audit. I really want to do something related to science Bc I miss it

Ex-consultant now in marketing. Used to be an avid follower here and got great insights on companies when trying to exit consulting so thought I’d try here for advice. Outside of FAANG, what are good large CA-based tech companies that provide good pay, WLB, and culture? DD has great people and WLB, but pay is low and you’re not given the tools and resources to succeed + truly make an impact. Google and Apple are ideal but need backups. Like is Salesforce still good? A company along those lines.

I am currently practicing insurance litigation but am looking to transition into corporate law (M&A, private equity). I have heard horror stories about this practice area though. I am looking for input from those who practice in this area. Do you like it? Is it interesting? What are the hours like? It seems a lot of people in this area are looking to get out...am I making a mistake by looking to get in?

Hi! I’ve been in hospitality & management for over 10 years and desperate for a career pivot. As anyone in restaurants knows, the work is ~80 hours a week and often making less on salary than your own tipped-wage employees.

Does anyone have recommendations on a new career path or job listings to investigate??

Did anyone from your past tell you you wouldnt make it as a lawyer? Did you ever rub it in their face later that you in fact did?? 😂

Hello Guys,

Can someone refer me for SAP Hybris QA role. Total experience is 7 years.

In a new job for 3 months but they really don’t give me much to do all day. I’m a Sr Strategy Analyst at a Fortune 20 and they forget about me a lot, haven’t provided a lot of guidance, or work, forget to add me to meetgs. However, they’re always complaining about how much work there is but say they don’t need help. I get that I’m new, but like I didn’t have anything to do for 3 days. I also don’t have enough knowledge to just take up some of the outstanding projects. What can I do?

One of the things that my ADD coach helped me with was realizing that I wasn’t prioritizing activities that help me feel recharged. Between work and home responsibilities, I was just burnt out and overwhelmed.

So now when I start to get burned out I focus on reducing auditory overwhelm, getting outside, listen to music, get comfortable, read a fun book, etc.

As we’re heading into the weekend, what are some things you do to recharge and give yourself a break?
