Good Morning.

Can anyone please help me with the same ?

Thinking about making a switch from supply chain to marketing, any suggestions for tools/software that i should learn?

Let's say I can't get a product or marketing job in tech, but I could get in via sales or customer success. Does working in those roles pigeonhole you, or is it easy to switch later? If you take a job as a customer success mgr for ads, or as a partnership mgr for learning solutions for industry X, are you going to get stuck in those products (ads, learning solutions), roles (CS, sales/partnerships), or target industry (X)?

Hi Everyone, seeking career advice. I am working as a Market research analyst with an expert network firm similar to GLG.

We recruit C level executives and connect them with consulting and investment management firm. I am looking to work as a talent acquisition /recruiter ?

How can I achieve this or make a career change?

I have a few questions for people in consulting roles (both external/internal).

My partner is in corporate banking, but he wants to switch to a consulting/strategy-based role. I noticed people with those jobs typically have an MBA, and also majority of the job ads in similar roles has MBA as either a requirement or preferred qualification. So:

1) does MBA actually improve someone's chance in getting those roles?
2) are there any good Canadian MBA programs you'd recommend?

Thank you all!

Shot in the dark since it’s an expensive, niche, and quartz watch… but does anyone have a Breitling Emergency? I wouldn’t say I *need* the emergency beacon aspects of it since a pay for a satellite communicator, but as an outdoorsy guy I’m intrigued. $15K+ seems like a lot for a quartz watch even with the plb functionality but bonuses don’t spend themselves

Help me folks please..!!

Brought my gf sushi take out to her house when she got off of work. She didn't like the meal I got her and started to eat the roll i got for myself. She noticed I wasn't eating so I told her I ate before rather than tell her she was actually eating my dinner. She's now mad at me that I "lied" even though I did it so she wouldn't be embarrassed. Who's in the wrong

Anyone could provide me with a referral for McKinsey in Amsterdam?

FML. I’ve been dating someone for 8 months and have been having doubts about the longevity of the relationship. This week he tells me he is thinking about leaving our city and working remotely. Even though I was already thinking about ending it, this hurts. I know I’m being childish - being rejected by someone who I was planning to reject! And I know he isn’t the right guy for me in the long term. So why does this hurt?! 😭😭😭

Is this still active? I’m a 25F in NoVA. Open to chatting!

Would you consider being an entrepreneur? Why do some people want to be entrepreneurs and some don’t?

Any regrets going into advisory?? Which group is the best interns of interesting work?

How are hours in CMAAS?

Please what’s the salary for Assistant Manager in Deloitte Financial Advisory role ?

I left Audit at a midsize firm to join KPMG erp implementation consulting about 6 months ago. So far they seem to only want to staff me on projects with a heavy focus on technical accounting and audit. Spoke to a lot of others who have left and seems like being pigeonholed or staffed on projects not related to the actual core work of the practice is the common reason. I've been on the fence about whether I should stay and hope to be staffed on better projects in the future or leave soon...

CMAAS Senior Associate interview questions?

Looking to return to Big 4 as a consultant now that I have some experience; however, I’m not sure if the reason I’m not getting any interviews is because of covid or what’s on my resume/lack thereof. Has anyone gotten hired at Big 4 during this time and have any help or insight for me? Thanks!

What might be a better career path?

1) KPMG Data & Analytics - Tax Ignition

2) FTI Consulting - Corporate Finance: Restructuring

Both are above 70k in salary in MCOL

Im leaning towards KPMG... both would be right out of college, entry level.

Should I get a CPA for Transaction Due Diligence?
I’m a new grad working in FDD and I’m trying to decide if becoming a CPA is worth it. I do not plan on staying in accounting in the future. I’m more interested in strategy work. I certainly do not want to do Audit. Would you recommend getting the CPA considering my career aspirations? Do you think it’s worth it? If not, what is the best way to use my time efficiently?

Looking for a Deloitte recruiter (or referral for bonus) in the Memphis area. Currently work for another Big 4 but am moving soon to that area. Only have two years experience. Thanks.

Can anyone provide salary details for an Accounting Advisory Manager at KPMG in a tier 2 city? 5 YOE

I’ll be promoted next year to senior but I’m in a niche role where I don’t see myself long term. Should I make a job switch now or should I wait to get promoted to senior? I currently have 1.5 years of experience.

How is life in FDD/ what are the most common exit opportunities?

Anyone at MBB looking to make a referral?

Pwc or Kpmg for tech consulting?

Coronavirus and health: has your alcohol consumption gone up during the pandemic? This pandemic had encouraged me to quit for good now.

Is AAS a good area to gain transferable skills and learn a lot? Comparing to audit.

What kind of exit ops are you seeing in accounting advisory? I’m in CMAAS and not sure what my options are other than traditional accounting roles. Also, salary expectations with 3 years of experience in HCOL? Thinking it might be really tough to beat current public accounting salaries.

Would it be hard to get a exp associate role in advisory at a B4 as someone with about 10 months in audit at EY, 7 months experience in corporate accounting at a F300 and CPA? Hated my time at the F300 but had thought the grass would be greener in industry. I’m starting a financial analyst position at a major hospital system in my area soon and want to stick with that for a couple years before making a transition but was curious if I just don’t have the right experience for a role in advisory.

What is your go to response in an interview on why you are leaving a big4 when going into industry or going to another big 4?
