I’m in ERP consulting at the moment, focused on manufacturing & supply chain. If I want to eventually transition into more of a tech strategy role, would a CSCP be worth having in my belt?

CSCP was the biggest waste of my time. Great for someone with no SCM background trying to land an industry job. Can’t really see it translating well to tech strategy

I second this, APICS certa are good if you are trying to switch industry or if your consulting work kept you too high level amd you are tying to switch to industry while looking competent.

But tech strategy is definitely not what you use cscp for.

2. How long (time) will it take to get an offer?
TIA :)

Hello all
I am a biology graduate. I worked in cancer research and development for more than two years. Recently moved to Canada, and now I'm wanting to transition into clinical research.
Most jobs I find online ask for atleast 2 years clinical experience.
Does anyone have any tips on how to procure this experience? Should I invest in a course? Or should I volunteer at a CRO?
I recently got offered a clinical admin position, would this count as clinical exp?
Thanks

What's the most effective way for a small RIA to recruit FAs who have a few years experience, want to break away from large/corporate firms? I'm a $70M fee-only (commissions for insurance) independent RIA with a generous comp schedule that enables FAs to own their own book while they grow. As the owner, my focus is to help FAs succeed; as a firm, our focus is on client service and helping them succeed. I can afford a small salary, but not benefits. I'm especially interested in female FAs.

Bain & Company What is the likelihood of making SAC in September 2022 if I join as an AC on April 18th at Bain & Company?

They told me 6 months for promotion but it seems like the two promotion cycles with my different start dates give me 4 or 9 months of experience, nothing in between.

Im currently studying Industrial Engineering with a minor in management. I’m interviewing currently for consulting, and theres a VC course at my school that seems really interesting but I can’t fit it into my schedule without removing the last class I need for my minor. Would not getting that minor do any harm to me short or long term? Im thinking that if I end up at consulting especially no one will care about a management minor they’ll just look at the firm I worked for.

Would you prefer to use a recruiting agent (very engaged as they are driven by commission) or an internet employee (someone I know but not so close nor have much time/incentive to advocate or follow up for me) as the referral source? I kind of like the recruiting agent better since they seem on top of things. What are the biggest pros and cons of each in your opinion?
