What is the average salary of an entry-level Certified Surgical Assistant in Illinois? In addition, could you tell me if my foreign medical experience of three years (as a physician) would count toward my job experience and compensation here in the US?! Thanks so much! #foreignmedicalgraduate 

Friends, I’m 25, entering my third year in MBB, and I’m so burnt out (I’ve averaged close to 80 hours / week since joining and hate the culture). I’ve always had a passion for public interest law, have worked at an impact litigation firm, and am convinced that going to law school is the answer. I’m afraid that without a big scholarship, I’ll land in big law to pay off loans and will be in the same situation I’m in now (with 100k+ debt). Any advice? Thank you!

For those who have worked at multiple big 4 firms, which firm had the smartest audit employees from your experience? In other words, can critically think, problem solve, follow instructions, learn at a decent pace, etc… My frustration levels have been increasing lately as I’ve been working with more and more people who make me question how they got their jobs…considering a switch! Thanks

First time poster. I work in economic consulting, specifically antitrust litigation and regulatory matters. Has anyone here successfully transitioned out of a very niche industry? If so, where did you go and how did you do it? Bonus if you got out of the same industry as mine.

Spent 2 years in B4 audit, then 2 years in FDD at a different B4. I’m considering a move to a boutique IB with ultimate goal being either Corp Dev or potentially other buyside opportunities.

Hi MBB 🐠, I’m curious how staffing works at your firm. As a(n) associate/consultant how much autonomy/choice do you have in selecting projects? Is it relatively easy to ask for a project in a given sector, industry, or practice area? What are the factors that determine the breadth of projects available to you, and your ability to be selective?

My current ctc is 20.3 LPA. And TCS offered 21 LPA. I have told them 4 months back only that my expectation is at least 30% hike. They dragged it a lot and took 4 months of my time for various interview rounds and now they came with this package. So I accepted. It's been 1 month now and I want to reject it now saying that i want the better hike. Is that correct?

Hi what is probation period for lateral joined in TCS.

There are 4,000 changes going on in my life right now. Not all are bad, some are good, and some I am forcing because I need to change toxic circumstances and so the short term is hard but it’s for the better over the longer term. But the last 2 years have been really hard and I’m feeling the anxiety build up inside me, and I really just want it gone.

Not asking for solutions per se, but send me your positive vibes. Could use them today.

There's a $200 golf networking event at some country club. Considering how important playing golf was in my previous company I'm inclined to go - but it's so expensive and then I have to get to the place which will be commuter train tickets plus an approximately $25 Lyft *each way*. Plus I think I might have to buy special golf clothes.

I'd be going for the golf lessons starting at 2PM and it includes a cocktail reception and dinner. The companies sponsoring seem meh. Is it worth it?
