If I can get PE Ops from IB, is there any reason to try and jump to MBB prior to trying to make the jump to ops?

Agree with BCG1. If you can pull it off straight from IB, no need to go through MBB. That said, I think it's hard to pull off without consulting experience.

If being in PE ops is the goal, nope.

Kinda like asking if joining IB firm over going straight into PE deal team… and f you want to be a PE investor, skip the BS and get into it… if that path is available to you.

Yeah, I have no real interest in going to the deal team.

My favorite part about banking has been digging into a company's GTM strategy and how they've driven margin improvements.

I am possibly going into a cyber security role where I would be leading internal and external content.

This is a great opportunity that will definitely teach me a lot and help get me further into tech. Problem: I’m scared. I’m scared I won’t enjoy it, scared I’ll be bored!!!, scared I’ll fail, scared I’d be making a mistake. Any advice? Has anyone pivoted like this? I want to be open.

I currently work at a medium sized firm and have about two years experience in personal injury litigation. The billable hours and lack of work life balance are really getting to me and I am looking to switch to something else out of litigation, preferably in house. I am also looking to relocate to a different state. How do I go about properly marketing myself to companies that might not take my relocation and minimal experience seriously?
