How’s A&M viewed as at MBB in comparison to Big 4 in terms of reputation, competitiveness? Does it increase chances to get an interview at MBB coming from A&M vs Big 4? Thanks all!

They're known as being far better for restructuring so anyone that knows that space will think of them more highly. For essentially everything else big 4 are more likely to be recognized. Chances from either to get an interview are close to zero without a referral and very high with the right referral.

I don’t think for us it would matter a lot in terms of odds of getting an interview. You need to bring something differentiated either way

Hi,

Recently got an offer from GlobalLogic for the client gigamon. Do anyone have joined for the same? Please let me know.

Long post alert; I have been interviewing with a b4 for a senior con role since Mar end. Cleared all the rounds including case study and got strong rating as well as good feedback. Fast forward to last week, the talent POC calls me up and informs that she has asked the business if the position is still open, because now they just need the business approval to roll out the offer. I immediately felt demotivated as to ‘why now’ after all rounds have been cleared (continued in the comment below)

I’ve got about 20 years cross channel experience in marketing, split between big brands and startups, and I’m considering pivoting into a data science/data analyst role. I know it will initially be a step back in comp but is it at all realistic for a person with certificate level experience in data analysis but a decent marketing management background to expect $150-200k comp or is that mostly for degreed candidates (or not realistic at all)? Any guidance here is greatly appreciated.
