is it worth it to shift to IB or MBB after 7 years in the big four(audit and fdd)? I do think IB and MBB are interesting fields that you can acquire unique skill sets and a good network.

I am looking into the CCP (Certified Compensation Professional). It seems to be quite an expensive exam.

If anyone else is studying, let me know and maybe we can share study materials!

For those who have taken it, are there any cheaper or alternative study materials to any official guides you would recommend? I went this route with the PHR and SHRM-SCP and passed each on the both try, so I wanted to see if that method may be viable here. Any recommended order to take courses in?

Hi everyone!

I am relatively new to consulting space. I worked with Deloitte in a research role, but have joined an MBB firm at a more front end role.
I have a slightly unconventional question to ask (might be political too), but since this is an anon platform, I hope to get honest answers.

I wish to know does people care about your looks in consulting (specially when you are on a client facing role?)

I am an Indian male, and I have acne (not a lot, but considerable). Cont. in comments
