Risk is a lot of compliance/regulatory work, while MC opens the doors to Ops, M&A, Customer, etc. competencies - basically, MC is less boring and develops better transferable skills

This is already a great reason. Thank you

MC

Would you say why?

Cont.// If I would mind switching my application to risk, as I had a year of experiences and thus more probability of getting the position and ofc I said yes. Now that I am working, I still get the feeling I would love management even more however ai have no experience in it and I don’t know if its just me making things up in my mind. (My current engagement is around 10 months long so trying “mc” is not an option right now)

MC

Would you please explain?

I have a friend who was let go a few months into his first job after college (reason: the manager felt like he wasn't grasping the training content to the level that was expected). He's worried about if he should put the experience on his resume anyway, if he does will recruiters ask why he had such a short time at this place, and what will recruiters think if he explains he was let go. What are some things recruiters expect from candidates in this situation to continue considering them?
