Is it bad to talk about how you didn’t get a promotion in your essays? It was a genuine growing point for me and I took steps to get promoted a few months later, but didn’t know if getting passed up for a promotion is a bad sign for adcoms

Is there any Gender Bias at Accenture when it comes to Promotion/Rewards?

Is there a market for lawyers to add expertise In crisis management or reputation management? My goal is to counsel clients on how to respond to media inquiries without saying or posting something detrimental to a potential litigation while still maintaining communication with their client base. If so, how to break into that industry? Courses? Books? Certifications?

Are most people still targeting 20%+ increase to jump from public to industry? I found a job that seems kind of interesting but it would only be a 10% jump, which will likely be my raise in public this year. The recruiter said 8–10% is pretty typical in my area.

My biggest mistake was accepting a promotion to manager, it made me realize that I'm not very good at managing people. Should I ask if I can go back to my old role?

Hello 🐟, I currently work in IAM but I've been unfulfilled mainly because I've been on the bench and my consulting muscles are not being utilized. I can't move because I'm early career and more experience is needed. So, as you can understand it's a rock and hard place to be. What is a good way to get out of this slump? I'm interested in cloud & thinking about a transition as well. But I feel like I'm losing relevancy & would appreciate advice to step up my game & land a new gig.

Hi Fishes! I hope y’all are having a great weekend. I did my undergraduate with Rotman, 2 YOE in Commercial/Corporate Banking after graduation, and working in Capital Market Team in B4 Consulting as an Experienced Associate. Now in order to break into MBB, I hope to plan ahead and I am working on case interviews. Meanwhile would really hope to get some guidance and suggestions here from current MBBers, or anyone who went from B4 to MBB, anyone is willing to have a ☕️ chat with me? TIA!!!

What are exit opportunities from copy into pharma?

I’m a 7th year associate. I’ve practiced L&E my entire career in big law for large multi-national companies. I like my job, but I’m burned out. I have two kids under two and will, in all likelihood, go for gold and make it three under three to be done. I’m over traveling. I’m over traveling for trials. I’m over litigation in general. I want to switch sides of the v and open my own firm. I’m digging into how feasible this would be for me. Does anyone have any good resources? Books, podcasts, etc

Hi everyone - MD Consultant here. Would love to network with other consultants in this group and learn why you decided to come into Consulting. Thank you.

What kind of career options does the Central Park Karen realistically have moving forward? She seems to be really qualified but obviously got shredded for what she did. Not a troll post, genuinely curious in what you 🐠 think. Will she ever be able to get back into corporate?

What typically strong advertising country would you recco moving to post Covid?

I’m sending resumes out far and wide, ideally I’d be in a new role ASAP. I’m already starting to get requests for phone screenings so formal interviews will probably be on the way. The kicker is that my wife is 6 months pregnant and our first child is due next February, which is busy season the public accounting jobs I am applying to. I feel like requesting paternity leave or letting them know a baby is coming will make hiring me more difficult. How do I approach this, and when do I do it?

Hi Everyone! I’m looking for AR valuation vendors since our health system has recently expanded. I know Crowe/RCA is a major player in this space. Does anyone know of any competitors to Crowe?

I interviewed with PwC for sf dev two weeks back. Last week I called up the HR who got me interviewed for an update on it but she just said that give us some more time we will get back to you. Is it pretty usual in PwC to take this much time?

How is this STILL a train wreck?

My wife is currently a teacher but is self teaching herself SQL (through Khan Academy) in the evenings. Though she won’t have any formal SQL experience, does anyone have recommendations for companies looking to hire entry level there? Since she is a teacher, most any wfh position will (sadly) pay better

Hello there, I'm a customer support person. My boss just told us to go back to the office when we thought we could permanently keep on working from home.

Please cheer me up, and share some pros of working in the office as a customer support agent.

I know notice period at thoughtworks is 2 months .
Given there are a lot of people on the bench , is there any chance that the notice period can be reduced down ? I'm not on the bench . Recently I joined a new project .

I have 5 years in insurance sales experience, how can I break into tech industry through customer Success?

It's an understatement

Unsure if my bf and I are incompatible or if I’m not compromising enough. How do you know the difference? He has so many great qualities that I love but also lacks some qualities that I would like to have but idk if I would be giving up on someone that is great for little things.

Who received Consortium offers? 🤗

Got promoted after submitting my application for R2.

Emailed the schools and some have replied saying I should update my resume and send to them.

I'm a little at a loss of what to add to my resume. As most of you know in consulting we don't get a bunch of new responsibilities the second we get promoted to the next level (at least before getting promoted to M).

I'm thinking I will add a section for Senior Consultant and add what my responsibilities reasonably would be in 3-6 months (cont)

From software developer to product in faang- how did you it? Executive MBA or weekend mba ? Full time is not an option for me. I am already mid 30s and don’t want to leave my job.

For international applicants, how it works the GPA part? (The grade system is 0 to 1 in my University for example)
And been the first generation in college, ECs, WE... this things are relevant in which part of the application? For M7 I would "compete" with people that have similar characteristics as me?

FYI
Graduated in Mechanical Engineering in top 3 Latin America University
"GPA" 0.7 (0 to 1)
First generation in college
Didn't take the gmat yet but the plan is in 1 to 2 years

Folks who got interviews at M7 from consulting: what’s the total you paid for MBA admission advising, whether it be on essay or interview prep? Know 4 people that spent $1000s on essay coaching alone (all got invites). Feeling discouraged - undergrad student debt killed money trees.

feeling discouraged about my application for graduate school. it’s honestly my dream and i just can’t get past the GRE. Any success stories? would help a lot haha.

South Asian Straight Male, 3.7 UG GPA, 750 GMAT... Do I have a chance at M7?

How hard is it for Americans to get scholarships from European schools (INSEAD and LBS)? What’s the typical amount?

Do you think it’s best to do your first mock GMAT totally cold? I’m fine on verbal but there are some quant questions I am completely lost on, haven’t done some of this stuff for nearly a decade.

Kinda worried I’m going be discouraged if my mock is hot garbage, even though I’m a good studier and good test taker :/

Is GSB even sending out emails anymore? Even rejections. Or are they just expecting us to wait until they update the portals at the end? Its ridiculous…

Whats a realistic budget besides tuition for an MBA at H/S/W? Deciding if I actually want to go and going into debt is one of the deciding factors (tuition will be pid by my company) and have heard people from my company who spent 100k+

Any recommendations for books or other resources which provide a helpful roadmap/guide for the application process?

If Fuqua worth taking on serious debt (150k) to pivot to Finance? Wondering whether it should be M7 or bust

2020 fall admit here. Many of my main drivers for business school have been impacted by COVID-19, such as getting back on campus and meeting new people. Concerned I’ll be wasting a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity starting b-school likely virtual. How have others approached the decision of going, deferring, or not going? Seems like a debate around the “least bad” choice

Anybody apply to Darden early action? If so, do you know when decisions will be released?
