I don’t do IT everyday, but I’ve done a few SOC audits. Should I be able to pass?

@KPMG 1- you should be fine. I took after switching to IT from audit only after 1 year. However, not many people realize you need 3 years experience (or 4 years if you don't have a Master's degree) to actually obtain the CISA certification after passing the exam.

Graduating with PhD in comp neuro next year.

It was amazing getting a sense of what the work actually comprises.

Are there any similar day-long or week-long internship programs for data science? Would love to test it out for a little bit to see what I like/dislike.

Hi guys,

I need an advice/suggestion here. I got an offer from 2 different organisations and choose one among them (Role: Analyst) because of the culture and benefits. And the other offer has a good pay and good designation (Associate Consultant) rather than the one I choose. Now i feel very low due to this decision that I took. I feel like I have settled down for a lower package and a lower designation. Is there anything that I can do in the current organisation that I’ve joined at a week back
