I'll be interning at one of the MBB this next summer, but I'm also interested in the Google APM program among other PM programs (RPM at FB) upon graduation. Although I'm not a pure CS major, I will have a major in Information Systems/MIS once I finish college.

I've heard about how ridiculously competitive the APM program is at Google. Is it even worth my time to try my hand at applying given I'm not a CS major? Should I just stick with the MBB full time offer?

MBB is pretty decent, congrats!

Why not! It's a learning experience if nothing else. The whole application and interview process at FAANG companies is a learning experience in and of itself.

Would love some advice / thoughts. I went straight from law school to a corporate legal department in house for an asset manager.

EY Deloitte PwC people - would you leave your current employer for a 15%-25% total comp difference? This translates to a 25-45k difference per annum, largely driven by bonus at the new firm (20-40%), much smaller than my current employer. Doesn’t feel like a great exit opportunity - currently at big 4 this would be moving to a niche consulting company

First time poster here!

After spending 4 years as a mid-level ops manager, I tried to break into HR through talent acquisition. Now after 6 years in TA, I've had a hard time getting out of it. My goal was always to get into a more broad HRBP position, but I've since worked for smaller orgs without a solid HR career path. When I ask about my career goals, they keep telling me, "Soon!" Or "Maybe in 6 months!"

I'm testing SPHR in June. Any advice for securing the type of role I'm aiming for?
