I would suggest reaching out to people on Linkedin and asking for a 15 min phone call. I once reached out to the google recruiter who transitioned from MSW to recruitment. She was very nice and responded to all my questions.

Currently a Wealth Advisor for Citi but I honestly hate it here with a passion it’s the worst company I’ve ever worked for in my life and I’ve been in Wealth Management in the banking channel for over a decade.

I would appreciate your perspective.
I am currently working on my MBA in a professional evening and weekend program at a highly accredited university.

Do you think all these violent and hate filled attacks are because people aren't getting the emotional/mental support they need, whether it's therapy at any age or help they needed but didn't get from a social worker as a child? My coworker is sure this is the case, but I honestly think there's actually something deeper wrong either with how these people are being raised as children, or how the warning signs these people give off are ignored or swept under the rug to save face.
