I’m in an HR mid level role and have been for over 6 years. This was a lucrative pivot after not finishing my degree and spending many years in exec asst. roles but now I cannot break 100K and I’m beginning to feel stuck. I’m a high performer and honestly afraid to look elsewhere because of my lack of degree but I know I am a huge contributor. Thoughts?

You should consider the start up route. They are not nearly as concerned about degrees and some may be looking for HR personnel.

Degree not as important anymore. Apply.

Polish your resume. Since you're in HR you know what type of language sells. Embellish a little. Use pro help to polish if you need.

Will be hard to break 100k unless you get to associate director rank in the Talent Team. Might need to pivot elsewhere.

From someone who was in the same boat - I made the choice to go into client-serving and have never looked back. Happy to chat about my experience if you’re interested! Feel free to DM.

Just graduated with Aerospace Engineering degree. I am interviewing for multiple positions at once with different companies. One gave me an offer and they want me to get back to them within 2 days. I still have other interviews scheduled and some for higher paying jobs (around 90k) What should I do?
I do like the company that gave me an offer but their base pay was 80k and they went up to 85k. Is asking for them to match the 90k too much? The position is associate systems engineer.

Should I get a CPA for Transaction Due Diligence?
I’m a new grad working in FDD and I’m trying to decide if becoming a CPA is worth it. I do not plan on staying in accounting in the future. I’m more interested in strategy work. I certainly do not want to do Audit. Would you recommend getting the CPA considering my career aspirations? Do you think it’s worth it? If not, what is the best way to use my time efficiently?

I interviewed at Amazon for a PM role in Dec. 2020 and was ultimely rejected. I was told I have to wait a year to reapply. Fast forward to June 2022, another recruiter reaches out to me re: a PM role. I pass the screening interview, and move on to the virtual on site interview stage. I randomly get a call from the recruiter telling me there is now a TWO YEAR reapply policy in place so I'm not eligible to interview for any PM roles until Dec. 2022. Anyone ever heard of this policy? Seems strange

Advice needed:

Strategy Analyst at a corporate -> IT DD/ODD at EYP -> Strategy Consulting at the same firm

Detour or shortcut, my goal is to be in strategy consulting. Is it better to just wait for a couple more years and then go directly into strategy consulting? Are IT DD and ODD experience viewed favourably by strategy consultants?
