Also, how many cycles do you have left before a promotion, what is your PMCR score? The ideal case is to wait till you are promoted, and then jump to a higher role at MBB

smart

So you can start to look for a higher position now just to feel the process as it takes time. And by the time you get a promotion you can negotiate the position you get at MBB. And the opposite, if you get an offer fast, you can get a promotion at advisors faster if you discuss it with your manager.

I had a lot of companies tell me that they’re just looking for “that two years of experience under your belt” when I jumped at 1.5 years.

I also wouldn’t have gotten into MBB either way though, so take that with a grain of salt lol.

I’m trying to pivot to PM after >3 years in finance and I have a 2nd round interview with CPO this week. Company has 3.7 on Glassdoor with complaints about CEO, “bro-y” culture, and hard to wfh. It’s a data analytics company with 5 PMs, was bought by a PE firm this year, and has a new (female) CEO as of Oct. Role is 50/50 hybrid, pays well vs what I make, and most importantly would be a foot in the door to PM. Is this a good place to be for PM? What else do I need to find out to know for sure?

How do you get experience when no one will hire you? I wouldn’t mind hanging a shingle but I feel it’d be irresponsible to do so with no experience. Unlike all of my classmates, I never landed an internship/externship in law school - had only one interview. I was a PT law student, came from a CS background, and worked in IT throughout law school. I passed the bar exam on my first try (Oct 2020) and have only had a couple interviews out of the hundreds of applications I sent out. Any suggestions?
