Is it possible to transition to VC post MBA if I attend a T15. 2 years of b4 consulting and 2 years of product ops at Meta. What can I study or what internships/pre-mba jobs can I apply to to prep myself for the transition?

Hi Fishes,

Wanted to know which one is better option to choose in terms of Work/Life balance, Career growth,hike and job security?

1. Deloitte India
2. Accenture

Skills- SAP CPI
YOE- 2+

Thanks

Has anyone successfully switched from a claims management role to the risk side as a risk manager/consultant?

So. MBA from a top 20 program (if that matters), working in the southeastern US with 10 years experience in private practice and hospital administration. Salary thoughts?

Anyone that has taken the audit portion of the CPA exam: did you encounter any simulations requiring you review a document and either keep, delete, or change a comment left in a memo? Awful

Tax senior with CPA at small firm. Best way to get to Big 4 audit? (LA or OC) Went to non-target so little to no alumni at B4. I don’t mind the switch to a lower title since audit was always my preference and was never a fan of tax (stayed local for family).

I’m in PA school now but in the process of interviewing for what might be my dream job in medical imaging industry. If I get the job pay will start around 120k at a large company with room for growth. If I stay in PA school I will have around 120k in debt and will probably work in vascular surgery. What would you do? It’s literally the second week of school for me, I have my 3rd interview for the job next week

To those of you who are planning to apply to MBA: Make sure you choose your recommender CAREFULLY. Really evaluate the person you’re requesting the letter from, their personality, and their relationship with you. You don’t want to be back stabbed like me 🙃

Anyone here who left fed job and regretted it?

I exited to FAANG from big4 and part of me is seriously thinking about getting an mba to go to mbb. Does that make any sense?

Currently a CSA in PWM at a top wealth management bank (think UBS/MS/GS) but not loving private client work. What have other CSAs gone on to do that’s outside of the PWM realm?

Looking to get into SaaS sales but my experience is in construction and fine furniture (I was a sales manager and was able to lead my team of 4 people to consistently hit 450k monthly targets). I did that for almost 2 years before making the switch. I miss sales, though. Does anyone have any connections to companies looking? I have also considered a sales analyst role considering that I am moderately versed in Salesforce and have worked both the customer facing and sales generating side. TIA!

Partners, At IBM we have Band 8, 9, 10 (AP). If the three banded people were to apply for an opportunity in BIG 4, what levels will they typically be slotted?

I have offers from different organization, Could you please help me to decide which one would be great choice.
All are for Bigdata profile with almost same package.

Deciding factor- Job security, WLB, yearly hike and scope of learning.

Currently a MS finance student. Recently secured a year long internship with the Federal Reserve researching commercial banking conditions. The role is tech heavy (python, R, Sql etc ) What kind of roles can I look into in the event there’s isn’t a return offer? Thanks

I am currently working in advertising with experience on fintech & CPG. I would like to work in tech marketing, specifically Google’s APMM program.
I’ve been studying some PM/PMM books/podcasts/videos, attending Google events, and want to keep learning more to try to prepare myself as much as I can.
What resources helped you get into product marketing/Google?
Has anyone here moved from advertising to tech?
Would love to hear from a marketer about their experience getting into Google.
Thank you

People joining TCS at Senior Consultant designation with 12 years exp, with no MBA degree or even from with exceptional experience in niche technologies is truth these days.

Existing employees with 20 years exp working on presales consulting, winning millions of dollars of projects in RFPs, delivering multi million dollar assignments are still not getting promoted and paid in peanuts

H1-B transfer question

I recently accepted an offer to join a company (A) . They started my H1-B transfer and I received today the approval notice for the transfer.

However, I accepted last week a (better) offer at another company (B) and they will start soon my H1-B transfer.

I attend to tell company (A) on Monday that I will not be joining them. Will there be any issue with company B filing for a H1-B transfer soon?

Hi everyone how is orcale to work? Is there a hiring firing culture.

My partner and I bought our home back in 2020. We got a good deal, low rate. But we want to move into a more spacious SFH. However, as we all know this market is crazy. Everything we want costs $620k+ and bc of rates it makes our mortgage estimates $3500+. We are currently paying $2k. And it looks we need to sell the house simultaneously as look for a new one or our contingency isn’t as attractive. I know it’s based on personal circumstances. But what would you do? - not move, sell and buy?

To what degree is the US economy isolated from the world's madness? There has to be a breaking point right?

I feel like 80% of my job is producing. Is this normal, or am I just working with shitty producers?

What's the hike percentage on promotion in BNY Mellon and what's it without promotion for Pune India operations?

Can anyone refer me for Payment BA opening within BNYM

COMMENTS REQUESTED!

In the past, lawyer wellness and lawyer discipline/character fitness for bar applicants have existed in silos. I’d like to finally form a bridge between lawyer disciple and lawyer wellness and focus on prevention. When we think of lawyer discipline, we automatically think of outrageous behavior like stealing money. Those are extreme. The common cases are too stressed out and forgetting deadlines or death of a loved one and not having time to call clients back. Cont’d

Has anyone ever taken gap in their job career

How do I know if I have received L1A and L1B? My visa stamp just says L1

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!

If any qualified candidate needs a referral to CohnReznick, please DM me. Fantastic firm, great people and overall culture, great hours compared to other public accounting firms, and we just substantially adjusted salaries to battle inflation effective 1/1/2022. Let me know!

Anyone getting their MBA done in Canada? Looking at Rotman or Desautels. Ty!!

What are your thoughts on Hult International Business School? I heard EYers can get their MBA through them for free virtually.

Still pretty early in the app process here. What extra curricular activities are best to up your chances for M7 admission?

Is 47 considered a low quant score for top 15 business schools?

What are the best and easiest EMBA programs to get into?

Hey guys, need some advice. I was fortunate enough to get the Consortium fellowship at Ross but am also stuck on the CBS waitlist and am still planning to apply to Wharton in R3. Assuming I get into CBS/Wharton, is there that much of a difference between them to forgo scholarship money? For context, I want to get into product management at FAANG/fintech with pursuing MBB as a plan B. Thanks in advance!

Took my 2nd practice test and got a 630 (Q41/V35) after around a month of Manhattan prep. Is it possible for aim for a 730+? How many months/hours should I expect to put in for that?

Automatic ding if you uploaded the wrong docs to the wrong sections (essay to resume or vise versa)?

I didn’t get into any schools this past application cycle but got into H/S. I feel like I’m going to be incredibly insecure meeting my classmates this fall who probably got into every school with crazy scholarships too. Do people typically share where else they got in, GMAT, etc. when you go to school?

Recently hired an admissions consultant and based off of our consultation she was great. Unfortunately, I have not been able to find a ton of non-gmat club/PQ feedback on her but I went with my gut and moved forward. What is the best way to get the most out of my experience with her? I am starting from the ground up for R1.

Any Sloanies or Sloan Admit’s in this bowl who wouldn’t mind sharing some tips for the interview? Wondering how technical it may get or what general vibe/questions asked are. Thanks so much!

MIT Sloan ($$$) vs. GSB (no $)? Post MBA goal is MBB or FAANG PM.

Which m7s are known for consulting and/or tech as exit opps?

I have a month left till my GMAT. Should I start solving the official questions timed or solve more untimed until I feel more comfortable? Asking because TTP is religiously advising on untimed strategy, but I’m currently struggling with timing especially CR; untimed sessions often make me take 3-4 minutes per question (80-90% accuracy). Thanks!
