Just shy of four years of experience in consulting, BS and masters in engineering, and working on my MBA part time at a top 25 school. Any chance I can get a manager role at KPMG federal?

I thought getting manager was guaranteed even without all that as long as you don't leave. At least it feels that way a lot

Unfortunately consulting firms really disregard any masters degree that is not an MBA.

Yeah, OP, but until you complete it, means nothing. Actually it means that you can't pull in overtime because you have to go to school. Finish your MBA and get in through the front door.

Good chances

What level are you now?

School is very different than actual experience, you pay your way into school while experience pays you

I'm at a medium sized business that doesn't have levels -_- which is a main reason why so many younger people leave. Literally it goes from consultant to program manager

D1 I am working on it in an evening program

^ depends on the role in some cases, for general business it's true though

Applied for "Manager, federal CIO" which CIO projects are what my background consists of

No, you'll probably get an offer for Associate, but when you ask for Senior they will give it to you. 4 years fed experience is nothing. Do two years as SA and you have a good shot if you're any good.

Lol no way. Hi senior consultant!!!

Actually at D maybe C bc you have such little witk experience..

Unless you're already a manager in a well known firm or you're bringing a client with you expect SA at the most.

No! Lol. Sorry

Hello,

Currently, in accenture. I have had very bad billable hours and not much achievement this fiscal year. I am worried of getting fired, so i applied for another job. Got offered may be 5% above my current pay with 5k bonus, but in lower level at Deloitte. I think working lower level will give me more opportunities to learn as i think i have lot to learn. I made decision based on my gut and accepted the offer. I have not talked to anyone on accenture side yet. What you think?

If you see several ways to improve a Team when you join, should you 1) Do it slowly over a free months so it doesn’t look like you did really good in the beginning then stopped 2) Wait until you are more involved so people don’t think you just joined and can do all these changes
