Ridiculous question: How do you learn what other jobs actually do, both conceptually and tactically? Should I just type names of jobs like product manager, etc., that I’ve heard of into google/YouTube/LinkedIn and see what comes up? I’m 23 and all my friends from school are either in consulting, finance, or medicine and I have no idea what other jobs are even out there / what they do - I just know that *consulting is a good job coming out of school* and *m&a integrations makes me sad*

There’s also a ton of content / resources on YouTube & TikTok (yes TikTok). I was an engineer before I moved to Consulting, I did my research and I networked on LinkedIn with folks who did those jobs. Set up one on ones to chat about their role, their day to day, projects, etc.

I’m in big law and on the cusp of making the jump to in-house. It sounds like the company I just interviewed with is getting ready to make me an offer. It’s definitely going to be a pay cut coming from big law but I do get some nice equity in the company. Is the jump worth it? I’m so burnt out by big law and this seems like an awesome opportunity to help shape a newish company. Any tips on how to figure out if this is the right move for me?

I’ve been told my company is changing my title from Associate Director of BD to Sales Executive. I’m concerned it reads like a title demotion. Is it just semantics?

For context, it’s a professional services firm, I’ve been there 3+years, and they gave a Sales Executive title to someone who just started 5mo ago.

Hi all.

Hello Fishes,

So far I received offers from PwC India, Capgemini and Lexmark for Data Engineering.

More are in pipeline from KPMG GS, TechM, Accenture.
