I'm at a career juncture and have decided on a career in anti-money laundering as my new path. I'm also highly interested in additional education to further my career and am eyeing graduate school. Which is best? A law degree or a master's in international relations? Those are where my interests lie. I keep reading that JDs are valued in compliance but am wondering if a different graduate program is better for my goals. I already plan to obtain the CAMS certification. Thank you!

Anybody out here know of any “development programs” for mid career professionals looking to transition to sales? Have a data/analytics b/g., but I’m much more social than a “typical” data/analytics person. We have a program at my company that I’m networking to get into, but believe it’s prudent to diversify options, as there is obviously no guarantee that they select me for the program.

I’m looking at applying to MBA programs and know most have veteran/military programs and clubs that seem to offer help with the admissions process. These are obviously very competitive schools and I’d like to use any resource possible, but I can’t tell if these are only intended for people transitioning from active duty. I’ve only been in the Reserve (with a deployment) and have an established civilian career. Does anyone know if these groups would be receptive to me?

First time ask here: I was interviewing for an Executive and Internal Comms Manager role and after three stages, I got word that the role has been paused but the executive I would be supporting if I had gotten the role now wants me to interview for Chief of staff. Is that a good move? I'll definitely still be writing for the executive but who knows if that transition makes sense?

Has anyone made their move from big 4 to@MBB? How did you all get that job?

This is a long shot - but I’m soon about to start a UX/UI program (6 months long). I’m hoping that I can incorporate my program manager experience with a UX/UI background to open doors for more opportunities.

I’m worried that I won’t be able to find something that utilizes both skill sets. Does anyone know of anything that would be a career I can look into that would focus on both of these skillsets?

I found an open role last night with an application deadline of today. The application requires proof of bar membership. The only way I know to do that is a Certificate of Good Standing, which I can’t get in a day. Other ideas? I do happen to have a certificate from a district court I was just admitted to, although it’s over 30 days old. TIA!

I’m trying to pivot into product or project management after 5 YOE as a systems engineer and a Masters Degree in Technical Management. Besides for product and project manager, what other job titles have similar responsibilities?

Anyone hiring for HR, Project Manager, or Business Analyst roles? I have 3 years 8 months of experience in HR at a midsized law firm in SoCal. I have an AA in Business Admin, Economics, Social & Behavioral Science.

Anyone here who works as a Business Analyst in India? Do the BAs in India require a tech background? And what skills are currently hot in the market?

How do you know when it’s best to stay in your position?

I’m tired of pivoting. I feel like my job has growth potential and I like my company. Also it seems like my company places a lot of emphasis on experience and I can only get that with time.

On the other hand I work on a small team and there is definitely room for improvement. I think the issue is the size of the team? Like, if there were 2-3 more people it wouldn’t be too bad.

I’m conflicted. Thoughts?

Hi! I have been considering leaving gov't to go into consulting. Has anyone on here made this same pivot? FYI, I'm pretty early in my career (GG-09) and I'm in DC!

Just want to share!

My client called and happily announced that my project is completed and well executed.

It is easy to manage time-consuming tasks and allows you to focus on more of the big picture stuff, especially if you have a reliable and committed Virtual Assistant.

So if you need someone that will help you to reduce the overwhelm for your Business, just direct message me or any referrals will do is highly appreciated.

Speak with you soon!

I’ve been really interested in getting into software development and computational linguistics. I’m pretty skeptical of all those boot camps that claim to teach you everything and get a 6 figure paying job in like 3 months tho. Any tips on getting started with no experience? If anyone is down to chat about their experiences pls lemme know :)

A VP told me that if I don't like our new WFH policy that I should find another firm.

Maybe I should, that's okay, but the fact that his response to my concern (2.5 hour commute both ways, not what I agreed to when I was hired) was just "find another firm" really rubs me the wrong way.

Really trying to make a career switch and get into recruiting/executive search. I have 10+YOE in the higher Ed space pertaining to business development. Any insight or feedback?

Any advice?! What am I missing?

I recently switched focus from FP&A to Finance Transformation with a 30% raise but really do not like the work and would like to transition back. I loved my old position but wasn’t getting the compensation I felt I deserved. But it’s just really frustrating having to restart the career search again after all the effort it took to find this current position at this compensation level.

Any suggestions on changing career paths from Construction Project manager to the Tech industry?

Anyone have any thoughts on including a short description of your position on your resume underneath your title? Then listing your bullet points or accomplishments after.

I think typically you would try to do describe your role and accomplishments in the same bullet point but maybe adding a description would help the recruiter or hiring manager understand your previous experience better?

For those of you who successfully “pivoted” into a project manager role … what specialty (technical Pm, Marketing PM, social impact PM, etc) did you find was the best to get your foot in the door ? I really enjoy marketing but lack concrete experience so no luck….
