Now’s not a great time as all the consulting firms just finished their layoffs, I’m not sure how eager they are to hire. But if you find a job posting at EY you can DM me your info and the Job ID and I’ll give you a reference

Do not recommend coming to consulting (especially considering all the layoffs in the past year). I left for industry and in my personal opinion industry is so so so much better when it comes to Cyber.

Just apply or start your own.

Okay finance gurus, I have an idea and interested in your thoughts. Might be a bad one so be gentle 🙂. I have a 2 yr old and another on the way. Need to start planning for college. I was thinking of buying a condo or 2 in lieu of saving and selling them down the line for tuition. Condos downtown are pretty inexpensive (T3) so it’s financially feasible. But is this a good idea or too risky?

Currently stuck in risk but interested in Cyber. Have done one related engagement from a regulatory perspective. But a lot of posts here making me think it’s harder to break into than I expected (non-technical background). If you had a six sigma green belt / supply chain degree/exp., would you still go through the effort of going into Cyber or take easy risk money being offered / easier transition back to supply chain? 2-3 YOE and trying to decide career course, any advice highly appreciated
