For FT positions the limit is one position per year, at least that's what they told me..

For internships it's 6months.

I am nosy as fk and am also waiting to interview. What happened? Deets? What could you have done better?

Also, that sucks! Sorry to hear!

Gamma is a whole different BU so the same rules don't apply. What position are you looking for? Drop a burner if you need advice.

As a gamma PL, I would tell you if you are rejected by generalist side, it’s unlikely you will have a different result with us. Unless you have a huge spike on ML/AI that didn’t come out during the interview process. Gamma is not a shortcut in

Your GitHub account better be stacked to the nines.

Interested in knowing more about Gamma, are you guys an software Arch shop?

Gamma just does consulting but specializes in data science, statistics, programming, ML techniques etc. basically a bunch of physics and math nerds

I have experiences in data analytics and ML. And no they did not ask me about this in my generalist interview. BCG1, my burner is fishsuperbowl@gmail.com. Would love to connect and get to know more about Gamma!

Would really appreciate it if other BCGers would like to connect as well! Thank you so much for your time!

I recently took up a Customer Success Manger role at a engineering software company. Previously I was a Project Manager at the same company but wanted to move out of my engineering services role. I primarily took this role hoping to get exposure to providing SaaS services as company is transitioning at software cloud. My long term goal is to move into tech as my current customers are mostly in O&G. Is customer success a good entry point go get into one for the big tech companies?

I interviewed for Data Analyst role at EY, it went well and the job sounds great, but I'm a bit hesitant to leave PwC because I really like the firm and I'm just 8 months in my job as an associate at a subgroup of ITS that has some focus on technology and analytics but it's mostly tax compliance.

I do want to transition to data analytics but I'm not sure if it's a good idea to go to another big 4, or maybe just look for a position in industry.

Any advice or similar experience?
