I need some career advice. I finished my master's degree in international law (B.A.Sc international relations) but I am not sure where to go from here. I always wanted to join a big firm and I've applied to different vacancies in international firms/companies but got rejected from all of them.
Does anyone have any tips on certain job positions or companies where an LLM would prove to be useful with my background?
I'm starting to feel quite stuck in this situation and it's very demoralising.

I’m a Junior product manager with a Master’s in Healthcare Management. I feel like the current company that I am at has my title as JPM, but I am doing PM work i.e creating product roadmaps, collaborating across stakeholders (business, marketing, design teams), creating user stories/features, etc. and I feel like my work isn’t being valued and I’m constantly being micromanaged by business teams expectations.

How feasible is it for me to apply to a PM role with less than a year of experience?

What can I do to boost confidence in role and skills?

I am a M2 at B4 FDD and don’t know how long i’ll be genuinely interested in this work. Currently debating rotating into a B4 IB associate role for a year or two, then moving to PE. Is this a reasonable move? I know IB lifestyle will suck, but I don’t want to find myself in a spot where I dislike what I do in a few years and feel like moving to IB may increase my chances of landing a better gig in the future ( as opposed to sticking to FDD)

Is it possible to move into industry or tech roles as an exit from PE (2.5 YOE MBB, 2 YOE PE associate)? I'm really looking for better WLB, even if that means a bit of a pay cut

I like DD work more than the boring project/IMO/SMO work but cannot put up with working weekends given the salary (I came from IB where you are actually paid for this time).

Open to thoughts - what other consulting firms or groups have interesting work and higher pay, but keep weekends free? Is it worth it to stay if I am a strong performer on DDs? MBA?

Looking to go from Deloitte Audit (Manager 3) to Advisory/Consulting. Does anyone have any advice? Most of the recruiters on LinkedIn seem to just have Siegfried and cfgi.

Have you ever worked overtime to get things done because you were told they needed to be done ASAP and then get told you can’t work overtime? So how are you supposed to get it done then?!?! 😡

Hi All,
Really need some input. We have our new construction done by April 2023. Builder is giving us 28,000 credits which can be used towards closing cost and buy lock rate for 6 months from now and giving us the interest rate for 6.75% for 30 years from US bank. But I also spoke to credit union they give us 5 ARM for 5.5% but can lock rate in feb 2023. So should go with the US bank with 6.75% plus incentives or wait till feb 2023 and thn lock rates(us bank doesn’t give us ARM rates).

I sublease an apartment from a friend who is currently in Jail unfortunately. I wasn’t in the lease and the apartment found out from my personal check which I paid for the rent.

They refused the rent and after the three day notification has passed they refused the cashier’s check here in Orange County.

The apartment has put him up for eviction and I feel bad about this cos it was cost savings. Is there anything I can do to save this?

Looking to break into M&A late in my career. Primarily involved with tech. implementations throughout my career and IT Strategy topics. I do have an opportunity lined up at a mid tier strategy firm(via referral).

It’s scary to switch careers this late. Should I first start with IT Due diligence before trying to branch into anything else? Is the NYIF Mergers and Acquisitions certificate worth it? Would really appreciate any advice and guidance from all you M&A folks. Thank you!

Hi all,

Need some advice on my next career move. I'm 31, have an MBA and am currently a SC in Risk Advisory with no M&A experience. I am good at risk consulting work but don't find it very challenging or interesting. That said, I expect to get promoted to M next year.

Recently, I interviewed with another Big 4 firm for SC in CDD M&A team and have got an offer. I enjoyed doing the CDD case study, and I believe I'd do well in the role.

Does it make sense to start afresh in M&A at this stage?
