ZS 🐠, how often are you at the office vs client site? I’m curious because I’ve heard they don’t travel much

Can someone explain how billable hours work? At a new agency and although I had to fill timesheets at my previous agencies, they were mainly used to ensure we weren’t over servicing a client/for setting the appropriate retainer for contract renewals. I asked ppl at my agency but haven’t gotten a proper explanation. I get the impression that billing to the agency admin code isn’t recommended, and my manager said he bills everything to client codes, but that doesn’t make sense to me .

So I worked from home yesterday and my husband had a sneak peak on my meetings with clients (which I’m very new to being a senior). He mention that I should read some sales pitch books of some sorts so I can get a process down and not be drain from having genuine conversations with every client. I think it’s a great idea. Anyone have thoughts or recommendation?

I would like to hit fire between 40-50. Currently 27, 185k total comp (125 for me and 60 for partner). Like my job don’t hate it don’t love it. Does an MBA make sense? I’m guessing it could take me to 170ish with that schools I’m looking at but wondering if the 40-50 retirement range makes an mba not make sense since I’d only have 10-20 years to save vs 12-22.

Would have to finance the whole thing myself. Current net worth is 140k. Thoughts?

Are there good opportunities for a junior level consultant (2-3 years experience) to transition to an industry job in Healthcare? Is a masters (MBA/MHA) a must for the higher paying positions?

Hi Fishes, what is your approach of value adding to your project on top of regular work? By the way I am a test lead(automation) and have 11 yoe in a product company.

I am not in account but would love to have a more comprehensive take away from meetings particularly client feedback verbalized. How do you account folks do it? Tips and tricks? Thank you!

If you’re ever feeling like BigLaw is pigeonholing your career, just remember that Rep. Liz Cheney started her career as a project finance associate at White & Case from 1996-1999.

Hello Fishes, I have 3 years experience in azure DevOps and looking for opportunities. 12 years experience in project management in non IT field .

Advice on managing up / enduring toxic deal teams? I’m at the point where my stomach drops any time I see something come in from certain people. Everything is behind, client is unhappy, I’m exhausted and simultaneously being micromanaged without guidance on big-picture/substantive issues. I keep trying to tell myself at least this is consulting and the project will be over... eventually...

Hi Fishes,

One of my friend is looking for change. She is having an offer from Tech Mahindra and LTI. LTI is paying 3lpa more then Tech Mahindra.

Which one is better between Tech Mahindra and LTI ?

Purely mercenary question here: If I'm currently a 7yr working EPLI at an ID firm, and want to break $300k in the next few years, is there a route to get there?

Partnership at my firm won't come close. My transferrable book is probably less than $100k a year. BL is probably not interested in me given my law school tier and current firm. Am I dreaming?

ORM 740 GMAT, 3.1 GPA from Top 10 Public, Tier 2 -> Tech in Finance with 4 YOE. Would it be a reach to get into UCLA, Yale, or Berkeley?

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!

Let’s talk finances. How are you all paying for this? Loans, I assume, but any strategies?
In early 2021, better to try to max out retirement accounts to maximize financial aid or to just start saving?
200k is so much.

Any Asian guys got significant scholarship to t20 schools using the gre, if so what score did you have, I got a 330, worth retaking for a better score if I’m aiming for scholarships?

Any Sloan calls yet?

Is an MBA considered an insurance policy from a work perspective assuming you go to a Top 20 program?

Is 30% scholarship for MBA a very good achievement or a very normal one these days?

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 🙃

Should I be bringing a hard copy of my resume to an on campus interview day?

Chances at SOM, Tuck, Fuqua, Darden? 3.7 from T100, 324 GRE (162/162), white lgbt male, 4 YOE with two promotions, on “young executive board” and 6 years of committed extracurricular

Anyone here who made an industry pivot via b school? Curious how you told the story in your applications. My mba “coach” is a bit concerned because I want to pivot into an industry that I don’t have any experience in, and that industry primarily does JIT recruiting. (Primarily biotech/pharma hoping to pivot to luxury / retail)

Question out of curiosity for those who already started or concluded their MBAs. Have you posted something on LinkedIn (e.g. I’m thrilled to announce…) stating that you guys are starting the program?

Anyone got fellowship or need based scholarship at M7 schools?

Executive assessment: does anyone have pdfs of practice test questions they can send me?

Ross or Fuqua?

Enrolled in Stern for a few weeks.
The number of the alumni and current students that go to top consulting firms FT& summer intern are countless even for a small class size.
Stern is way more than a finance school. Given its location, do you want to spend your 2 years in a rural area or heart of Manhattan? Location is almost everything for business school. (I have a friend in Cornell that frequently travels about 5 hours to NYC for events.)

Has anyone recently signed up to take the gmat online prior to may 20? I’m trying to sign up for a slot in the next week or so, but I keep getting redirected to an error page. Not sure if this means slots arent available anymore

I am not that smart. Got a very low score on ACT (below average). Should I even consider getting a MBA? My firm does offer sponsorship, but taking/studying for GMAT/GRE is already stressing me out.

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