I just want to +1 for learning SQL. Even if your not in “technology” you should 100% learn SQL, it’s conceptually so important and it will differentiate you from your peers even if you do strategy work. I self taught myself years ago and it’s one of the best things I have ever done.

One add on thought which is going to sound intimidating - depending on the database (Oracle, SQL server, etc) learn the metadata tables. Like in Oracle I could search

SELECT *
FROM ALL_TAB_COLUMNS
WHERE COLUMN_NAME LIKE ‘%EMPLOYEE%’;

Which would give me all the tables that had a column with “employee” in it, makes it easy to find related data points.

MM shop, inv team role, I did a final round last week (my XXth IV so far) with one of the GPs. I honestly thought it went great. Haven’t heard a thing since though. Recruiter thinks I’m still in it cause of Christmas-Hol.

What’s the best way to turn down a 2nd interview? During the 1st interview, I learned that the compensation for the role is not within the range that I am looking for and requires 400 more billable hours a year than what I bill now. I’d basically be laterally for my current salary just to bill 400 more hours. I also wasn’t aware that the local office was strictly ID. Firm website advertises lots of practice areas. Any advice? TIA!
