Consultant level salary expectation at Accenture life sciences with 5 YOE MBA?

I started a new role in BizOps over the summer at a late stage FinTech startup making $150K base ($15K signing bonus) and stock options. I previously worked at a T2 consulting firm and went to a non-HYP Ivy for undergrad. Have 4 YOE (will be 5 at matriculation)

I’m debating whether I should pursue an MBA. Long term goal is entrepreneurship / FinTech for developing economies. I don’t think I’d want to go back into consulting and I don’t think PE/VC is very feasible either. Any thoughts?

I would really appreciate some suggestions for roles that I should be applying for. I recently started my MBA though I'm still having trouble landing interviews and think I should be applying for different roles than I have been. My MBA concentration is global business, my BS was in management with a minor in professional writing. I've been working in cosmetics mainly on the customer service side, currently senior support for the CS team and have experience doing CS on social media.

Given everything that has been happening with online learning and universities being poorly prepared for that, would one consider a MBA less valuable?

So, a recruiter gave me feedback that my lack SPHR or SHRM-SCP is causing my resume to be knock out by AI and human recruiters despite my position and work history in Multinationals and being in Technology. They suggested that we put SPHR ( Lapsed). I let it lapse in 2017. What is your opinion? Plus if I were to take another certification - should I take SPHR or SHRM-SCP?

has anyone seen immediate results after getting a SHRM certification? i’m applying for entry level hr roles with recruiting coordinator, hr intern, admin asst, and a customer service role on my resume and no luck so far. i’m wondering if this will help me land a job quicker? also wanted to ask if anyone has knowledge of grants/programs to assist with payment since i am unemployed and money is tight. thanks!

Serious question. What top MBA program is the most fun? Not looking to party but looking to make life long quality friends and enjoy my time learning and exploring the world together

Hello Fishes,

I am currently working at Tiger Analytics, and have a total exp of 2 yrs but it seems like they are laying off employees as they do not have enough projects and the bench is growing as they wont stop hiring. I wish to have some leads as a Data Science Analyst or a Data Scientist, anybody with opportunities is welcome. Do share and help me grow!

So here is my doubt .. I have resigned recently from cognizant and I'm serving notice now.. I have 3 offers now.. and few others are in pipeline.. and I'm bit worried about how you say NO to the employers who have selected you.. and the good offers are coming only in the last 10days of serving notice.
