😮 y’all are mean 😭 I meant like is corporate finance a typical exit from MBB? esp at the analyst level vs finance manager

Typical for whom? With what background? Years of experience? Long term career goals?

Do you see how there are countless variables at play that would affect the answer to your (odd) question. You sure you work at MBB?

Hello, I’m currently looking for a non clinical position in the Charlotte area, more in the public health field. Does anyone have any referrals or info on any jobs?

So I say this with complete humility and an understanding that this is a fortunate-ish situation to be in. I’m in a position where I am tied to nothing, I have no children, spouse, or house. My job, which I’ve loved until some recent significant leadership changes, is sucking the life out of me and I think it may be time for a change. Because I am able to “pick up and go” I’m open to opportunities and locations. I’ve never worked with a recruiter but was hoping I could get some recommendations!
