Is getting a PMP certification worth it?

Any advice on transitioning from medical sales to tech sales. I’ve been a top performing rep (ranked first and second) two out of the last three years at my current company and was top 5% at my previous company. I had my resume optimized and am getting rejected left and right even by healthcare tech and I’m not sure why. Any info or leads would be greatly appreciated!

Hi All, I’m thinking about getting certified in change management but not sure if I should go the Prosci route or CCMP route. CCMP is a lot cheaper compared to Prosci but would it measure up just the same?

I guess it would be similar to the discussion of the SHRM-SCP vs SPHR.

Wondering if anyone here got "provisional" CISSP --obtaining the cert before five years in the industry. Have Security+ and CIPP/US and aiming for BISO role in Fortune 100. Pivoted from consulting. 15+ YOE. Masters degree Management experience. Advice? Thanks.

AWS Cloud question- what the difference between an SCP and IAM? Thanks in advance

Hello Fishes,

Need your input please

If i get lowballed package with good learning curve. Is it better idea to stick to it for next eight month and make another switch to recover the loss? Or should I search better job ? I have only 20 days left in notice

Anyone ever boomeranged from one Big 4 to another and then came back to the initial Big 4? If so what was the reason?

Agenda:
Putting self progress on the course they are doing ,so that others can be motivated and
Discussion on topics related to transitioning

Looking for advice! I was approved to work remotely but my salary will decrease 10%. I received two raises so the decrease brings me down to my previous salary. I was told that it’s due to the cost of labor in the area.

I’ve been with my company for 8+ yrs, I love my manager and the work I do (engagement, recognition, & wellness programs) but I feel like I’m limiting myself since I have the experience, an HRM degree, and SHRM-CP credentials.

Should I apply for roles outside the company?

I have to pick a direction to move ahead in, Brand & Marketing Design(with website) vs Product design (Games UXUI , Physical and digital)

I have a solid background in both, so keeping preference aside - which direction do you think makes more sense to gain more experience in? And will make more sense for the future.

Hi guys, a plea for help here 🙏🏻 have any founders here gotten an O-1 visa or an H1B transfer into their startup? Would greatly appreciate hearing your advice / experience over DM

Perspective. I’m retiring from the service and I’ve positioned myself decently to be competitive. I have a graduate degree pursuing a doctorate, LSSBB, ScrumMaster, SPHR, and PMI-ACP.

How is FTI compare to Accenture?

Went through multi-day loop for L5 SA and felt confident in my interactions. Presentation went well with no lack of answers for follow up questions. Just found out 6 days later I will not be receiving an offer, and it is policy to not provide feedback of gaps or reasons behind no offer. Also found out they ask you not to reapply for 1 to 2 years for same role. Would anyone recommend an alternate path for feedback on interview (outside of recruiter) and is the 1-2 year policy true?

Hi! I have 9yoe in startup, hyper growth environments. I have a strong customer Quality Assurance process improvement background. I want to shift into becoming more of an IC vs people manager.

Has anyone used exit opportunities to get early promotions within consulting? For example if I’m 1 year away from promotion at D, could I apply for a role that’s a level up at another firm? Is this something that’s doable and happens often? How does one pull this off? Will you be forced to stay in that next level for longer at your new firm?

Here is my idea for a startup! I collect all the data from career transitions and use Data Analytics to predict the most likely career transitions. I could start with consulting. What do you guys think about this? I would be able to predict based on your firm(mbb, big4), your experience, which role you are likely to move (Faang pm, strategy manager, move to mbb). I have all the data to do this, but wanted your thoughts. Would the output of this be relevant to you?
