Hi, I have a total experience of 5 years and working in a project as a Product Specialist (Not a developer or so much technically sound). CTC - 8.5LPA.

Now I am planning of doing some Masters/Certification and move to a more technical job. Do you all think this will be a good idea considering my scenario. If yes, which course will be better for me?

Kindly suggest & guide.

I am planning to start with Google's Cloud Digital Leader (CDL) certification and later will move further for Associate Cloud Engineer Certification. But upon searching on the internet I couldn't find any jobs that require CDL, mostly starting with Associate Cloud. Since I don't have any experience in Cloud and to start with Associate Cloud I need to have at least +6 months of experience on Google Cloud.
I would really appreciate if anyone can guide me in this.

I am a Project Management professional that is a US citizen. I am trying to get a job in Dubai from American but can't seem to get much traction. Would it be wise to go there? I am not sure if they are taking my application seriously since I am not physically there.

As a Data Scientist, I only considered PM as a post-MBA (about to join HSW this fall) career path. But I wonder if I’m limiting my options prematurely? Are there actually any other positions worth considering in tech or elsewhere where one could capitalize their tech background? Does anyone even care about this experience?

My profile is ~7 years in a few FAANGs and decacorns as a product analyst / data scientist / ml engineer. Worked with both engineers and business folks for a while.

Virginia Tech offers a Masters in CS or CPE, with both offering concentrations in Cyber. Is it worth it?

Anyone know how many people successfully get sponsored for MBA’s in a typical year? And what the acceptance rate is?

What was your experience with the LSAT? Do you think it's gatekeeping, preventing students who can't afford it (often people of color) from entering the field? OR is it helping future attorney's of color by giving them a chance to go to a top school regardless of grades? I've seen questions about the LSAT all day and just want to know how people feel.

Ex healthcare workers in Tech/Sales Engineering/ Healthcare consulting;
I have my masters in nursing/FNP (1 yr) making <K70 (Indiana) due to low patient census in my role. No desire for a different FNP job nor to return to bedside nursing (RN 5 yrs). I have heard of some individuals with remote positions making >K100 with little to no experience in tech or consulting after doing a boot camp or cert?
If you pivoted; What’s your current role/ Income & what did you do to complete the transition?

I’ve been considering to stop pursuing the CPA certification and instead wanted to focus around more IT driven certifications like CISSP. I already have my CISA. I’m just not as committed to the accounting world as I used to be making it hard to study and put my full effort into the CPA. Has anyone ever felt the same that it was best to change paths if your not truly committed to the long road of the CPA?

Does applying to bschool at the same university you attended UG have any impact? I had someone tell me it makes it harder because it seems like you aren’t seeking out diverse experiences

MBB/K folks in Riyadh offices, is there lesser flying and hotel stays than for people in UAE office, given most Saudi clients would be based in Riyadh anyways? From a work life balance pov, if this is so do you prefer it?

I’ve never worked at a firm, only public interest and have no idea how to do billable hours.

Hi all I need to vent. I’ve recently moved into a new apartment and from the beginning it was a nightmare (place wasn’t properly cleaned, person upstairs is ridiculously loud) I’m paying more than the average rent for the area (almost $3k after paying for parking and other fees) where average rent in this area is like 1800-2000 max. It’s supposed to be a nicer building and just have been so unhappy. Today though was my final straw. My $700 package was missing from (continued in the comments)

Confession question for the men here: what antiperspirant brands and scents are you wearing these days that you'd recommend? Just realized I'm essentially buying the same deodorant brands I was wearing in high school and curious what others recommend these days. TIA!

Is someone taking the GT OMSA program right now? Wondering how is the experience so far, and difficulty of getting into the program. Would be great if someone involved in recruitment could also

“I feel like I’m the stupidest person here”
“You are not stupid. You literally work at one of the top consulting firms in the world”
“I literally got a 6% in one exam during undergrad”
“Well damn I guess you are stupid”

I am an personal lines account manager/client manager (property and casualty) going on 6 years experience and I am being paid $53k a year. I am living in CA and work for a large corporation (about 1500 employees). Do you think that $53k is low or seems like adequate pay?

Which V20 has the worst culture and why?

Hello and welcome! I’ll start - if you were recently laid off in fintech, my fintech (in Chicago and some in SLC) is hiring! Lots and lots of jobs. Please reach out!

Have you ever been interviewing with a company and then several interviews in, you see another role at the same company that was just posted that might also be a good fit?

Would you apply? Ask the recruiter you’ve been talking with? Or not say anything at all because it looks desperate?

For Johnson, after the interview, do they send admits on a rolling basis or do they all come out on Dec 18?

How many classes is too many classes to include in a “Why MBA?” essay?

Will MBA grads from 2019-2022 be snubbed during recruiting bc some classes were online?

So...when do y’all think Sloan invites will come out?

Controversial opinion… I’m jealous of the covid-classes were forced to do their MBA’s online. I have no desire to do an MBA in person, but I also have no desire for people to look down on me because I got an online degree which isn’t “prestigious enough” for some people 🥲🙄

Best GMAT prep course for bankers/consultants who’s planning to do some intense studying for a month given work schedule?

Do you think an MBA in my scenario makes sense?
Currently a L62 at Microsoft as a PM, which is the post MBA level (I have 3 YOE). I have a desire to try out VC investing or ops, and an MBA might open up my doors. However, I’d be giving up a massive opportunity cost (in those 2 years I’d probably make senior pm at msft) and don’t need an MBA for lateral big tech moves. Don’t want to get an MBA and strike out at VC

Background: 24, 333 GRE, Ivy undergrad with 3.9 GPA, ORM male

How much does GMAT/GRE matter? Is a 335 going to make you stand out as an applicant at H/S? Or do you just need to get above a threshold?

Is Wharton calling admitted students or informing everyone via portal first?

I think it's common to choose Stanford over Wharton. However, Wharton has one of the largest alumni bases (99,000+ throughout the US) while Stanford is smaller (20,000, concentrated on the West Coast)

Timeline wise when do schools expect a decision from the applicant? E.g if i feel like i undershot in R1 and want to try my chances at some better schools in R2 , would I have to give R1 schools a decision before hearing back from R2?

What are you doing PreMBA wise? (Eg internship, conferences, traveling)

Is it okay to accept a job now, but know you are going to b school this coming fall? Anyone navigating a decision like this?

Indian female, 330 GRE, 3.7 GPA from stern NYU, 3 years at Accenture, what should be my target and reach schools?

Boy do I wish I hadn’t left my HBS app to Jan 5th evening

GSB no $$$ vs Wharton half tuition? For someone not totally sure what they want to do. Sponsorship from McK is an option as well.
