I’m mind-blown with some of the opportunities and salaries posted here with minimal work experience. It’s incredible while making me feel like I’m definitely spinning my wheels 😵‍💫 went back to school mid 30’s, BA in Project Management (CAPM, working towards PMP) 9 months out from a dual MBA in Management and Supply Chain Management. 6 YOE Operations Management , 1.5 PM. Open to suggestions to solidify a career pivot!

I feel the same way! Also mid-30's here. Clearly there's a different breed of workers in the water these days. It looks like financial and tech have the best opportunities. Definitely inspiring me to go out and 'get that bread' as the kids are saying.

Spot on!

Use that as an inspiration but never a discouragement to your own efforts. Education is always welcome and you going back to school in your 30's is only a testament to your hard work and dedication. Good luck!

Also, if a sophomore or junior doesn’t get a finance-related summer internship (I.e tech) and aims for an IB SA or FT position, is it harder to break in?
