I am an experienced consultant (13 yoe) that has been interviewing with Boston Consulting Group for a project leader role. I have talked to several partners and managing directors which has gone well. Now I have to go through the case interviews. Any advice for someone at my level to clear the case interviews?

Hi All

I got selected for TCS recently and 4th July is my joining date. I was selected for 15 LPA. My concern is i have a small kid who is 10 month old and i dont want to leave her to maids. I am getting higher package offers like Nagarro permanent wfh. But i am hearing that Tcs will be good for WLB and less work stress. Is this true? Because i am little bit stresseful that permanent wfh options may be very hectic. Kindly guide me in this regards.

Hi Fishes,

I was informed that I have cleared all rounds with CITI and was asked to share documents on 21st April. Post that received couple of calls from recruiter to apply on some job link and just basic discussion about current CTC and expected CTC, etc. Neither had a proper salary discussion nor received any update on offer letter yet... Can someone let me know how much time does it take for salary discussion and to receive offer letter post document submission with CITI?

For Netflix maybe have different different APIs for signing up vs scrolling through possible movies?

Notice Period question please. After being in the same company for 8yrs & experiencing burnout in the last 2 years, I’d like to make sure I take a month’s break before jumping into my next role. Esp as I havent taken more than 2 days off at a time this year (max. 3 times/Long weekends).

What’s the best way to go about it? Should I give my exact notice period & negotiate start date, or share my notice period with a “buffer”?

Thanks for any tips and insights!

Hi all. How's everyone.

I’m a new analyst at an IB group. I’ve felt that I’ve done well my first month or two and delivered higher quality work, but I feel that lately I’ve been slipping up the past few weeks given the intensity of the deal as well as having multiple peripheral work streams. It also doesn’t help the second year analyst quit so I don’t necessarily have a resource to lean into. (Cont.)
