I’m a business consultant in Finance competency focusing on ERP transformation and operating model design. I believe i should be on track for promotion in the fall... should i lateral to a T2 (S&, LEK, OW). Long term goals range from working at Start-ups to corporate strategy to growth equity

I’m currently a 2nd year associate in commercial finance. I’ve realized I don’t enjoy a a strictly transactional practice. I enjoyed litigation matters as a summer (particularly the adversarial nature). Also, love talking and advising clients. I don’t want the litigation lifestyle and appreciate the in-house opportunities of transactional. Assuming that I could switch (or lateral), I’m thinking I may enjoy employment (and the ability to defend and train/advise). I appreciate any insight.

Anyone work in one of the tax technology groups? I’m currently in SALT, but have some significant technology experience from some prior roles that I think could make me a decent fit for something like this. How is the WLB, pace of work, etc.? Im also curious how the exit opportunities look?

Is anyone going for Fall 22 2-year full time MBA worried about graduating into a recession? Or am I overthinking this? Currently in pharma/biotech hoping to pivot to LuxRet which will definitely be hit if a recession slides through.

Did anyone here turn down an in-house role for reasons other than money? I have SEVERE cold feet about succeeding in-house and it being more stressful and “busy” than firm life. Help!

Hi Team, I am an automation engineer, I would like to switch to BA profile, could you please let me know what are the technical skills one should possess...?

At what point does the value of a degree fall off? I'm in my early 30s, and have five years of experience, and work on a very theoretically interesting project. I believe I'm on track to promotion in the next year. So, I could put in a year of full time school to check the box off, but I'd be sacrificing hobbies and social life (not to mention cost). Is this FOMO or is there real opportunity here?

Hi All

Looking for recommendations for the SHRM-SCP exam; going the self study route…thanks

Hi, I am considering a career pivot to creative resources/operations, but am wondering what I should do in order to break in.

I'm in finance/tech FPA, looking to go back to the defense industry for a 25% increase in TC. But wanted to see if I should leverage the new salary with current company to see if they'll match.

Background: got a promotion at current company that didn't come with sufficient increase . After stating my case I was told it would be evaluated next October, which is what prompted the initial job search.

Current TC 103K [88/15], offer 125k base [+discretionary bonus].

Hi does anyone on here work for Accenture, Deloitte or really a company that is diverse and has a good work life balance that can help with referrals ?

Any advice or recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

Hi ,
Need an advice and thoughts for the below companies too much confused which to join
YEO -5.3
Tech Stack- Java , Microservices
Salary - Almost same
1) HCL TECHNOLOGIES
2) Coforge - HSBC client
3)BMC SOFTWARE - But the tech stack is core java and legacy application
4) Synechron - Client interview will be post onboarding
Last 3 weeks remaining to complete notice period,would be really helpful if you let me your experience in aspects of wlb, job security, future growth & increments

TIA

Do we have any generic certification policy at HCL for upskilling.

Not talking about project specific or where RM needs to approve, as this tech (cloud) is something I want to learn, not part of my day to day work.

Does anyone have the 2020 SHRM books for sale or to borrow? My job won’t contribute towards my certification. I’ve already paid for my test. I have the books from 2015 but I’d like to study from the 2020. I tried finding them online to purchase but sellers of affordable books aren’t responding.

(1/2) Hi all, based in the UK 🇬🇧, would appreciate your advice on how I could break into product management.

Context: Graduated in 2019 (Finance), 2 years at EY as a business consultant on mix of pmo projects and tech projects where I was developer (data vis, power platform, sql, vba, data analysis etc.). Joined Google on a 6 month contract as a data analyst.

Should I be applying for product analyst roles? Should I apply for strategy consulting? Could I go straight for prod mgmt roles?

Hi folks, I am working with a few friends on a fintech idea. I opted to build the marketing roadmapping strategy for the soft launch/prototype phase as I want to learn about the field. Any guidance where should I start? Any guidance, books, topics will be helpful 😊

What’s an appropriate raise to ask for after a strong year? Last year I received close to 10%, though I’m still underpaid. Was thinking about asking for 15%?

I am interested in getting my SHRM-CP certification this year and I was wondering which study methods and materials worked best for those of you who passed the exam. Also, what are your roles in HR?!

Today i have interview for java backend developer. May i know what questions will be asking. How the interview will be

Recently switched jobs and had several thousand available to rollover into my new 401K. Also just got married/had a wild bachelor party/overspent on honeymoon, which led to me having about the same amount in high interest credit card debt. Definitely feel like it’s a one time thing and I know how to budget better for trips now. So, my question is, should I use my old 401K amount to just pay off my debt, taking the 10% hit in penalties, or should I roll it over to my new employers 401K?

Currently a third year Senior, but looking to jump. How likely can I get an offer as manager at another firm?

A quick note about what I’ve experienced, in my decade long career, is the real advantage of MBB or FAANG - it gives you a shot at stretch roles that are outside your expertise. Not all the time or even most of the time compared to better candidates with specific experience for the role but gives you this wildcard shot at a vast array of opportunities.

I know Mck is the top for strategy, but in terms of digital/design in top consulting firms which do you think is better? Mckinsey digital or deloitte digital? (Or another..?)

What are some of the best consulting firms for a software engineer? Is MBB still considered elite in this area too?

How do I become an MBB employee? Is it possible to gain experience at big 4+ACN and then get referred in??
