I have over 12 years in B2B sales/sales management experience along with a graduate degree. I am wanting to shift gears and I am at a point where I can invest time in myself to learn through practical experience. The new industry I am wanting to pursue is real estate investment. I have read all the books but want some hands on experience on the property management side. How could I best leverage my skills for a role in this, and what should my expectations be for negotiation in compensation?

I was taking a friend to the airport and her flight was delayed, so we stopped at a restaurant to see a mutual friend who was eating there with her entire extended family. There was an empty table next to them with several half-eaten pies on it, so I assumed a previous party had just finished their meal and left. I finished off 4 of the pies and then left to get my friend to the airport. Turns out the pies were part of an employee appreciation dinner for the servers and so (finished in comment)

Hi
Would love to get your opinion on this-
I am planning on applying to business school this year in round 1 and round 2. I am in india working at D. I have received an offer to work with another big 4 in London as manager with their consulting team starting June. The role is definitely a step up in terms of responsibilities from my current role as a senior consultant. Do you think it might hamper my business school application changing jobs so close to round 1? Have been at D for 4 yrs

Hey guys, need some advice. I was fortunate enough to get the Consortium fellowship at Ross but am also stuck on the CBS waitlist and am still planning to apply to Wharton in R3.

For context, I want to get into product management at FAANG/fintech with pursuing MBB as a plan B. Thanks in advance!
