Look for alumni in the roles you’re interested in and talk to them about the process. MBA just gets your foot in the door- faang still hires largely based on the type of experience you had pre-mba

The internship will likely help you pivot- try to land something related to marketing even if not in tech and hopefully talking to your alumni will also help you tailor your resume to a pmm position.

Hello Fishes, I have a Job offer from Cisco and Verizon(VDSI).

Cisco CTC - 16.2LPA , Fixed - 15.1LPA - Cisco TAC role.

Verizon data services llc - CTC 18LPA , Fixed - 16.1LPA

YOE - 6.5 Years
CCTC - 7.2 LPA
Tech - Networking and Security

Conflicted between both as I believe Cisco has a better brand value and great company to work for. But the offer from Verizon is competitive.

Is it a good idea to renegotiate with Cisco based on current offer from Verizon. Please share your thoughts.
