CAPM by far. How can you do a DCF without it?

likefunny

Discount Cash Flow - popular way to provide a valuation; CAPM in McK’s term is Capital asset pricing model - what’s used to identify the discount rate to use in the DCF

Capm is useless tbh; you’re probably better off doing the PMP (also scan your market to see if Prince or any of the Scrum Master ones are valued)

Capm is good if you don't have the years to qualify for PMP. PMP is much better but capm is worthwhile

I only have 2 years of experience

What industry do you want to break into?

Id pick CSM over those two unless you’re in federal consulting

No value to have more than one of them (I have 3 and utterly useless - I found CSM is more pure agile and SSM as more applicable for transformations)

Has anyone ever posted a general marketing position? We have an open position on our marketing team but we are unsure what type of position to offer. We have a wide variety of needs but don’t necessarily need to have this future person have all these skills. For example we need someone with great copywriting skills and also need someone who is great at digital marketing. This person doesn’t necessarily need to have both skills but if they did great, but if only one, great too.

Sanity check. Going to preface this by saying I'm not in a rush. I wanted to get some good consulting experience so joined EY out of UG. Got early promo, but I've reached the point where I'm no longer growing (learning) much on my current team. I've become very interested in PE and want to give that a shot. I lack the resume experience.

Thinking to move within EY to an M&A focused group SaT or EYP. Do ~2 years and see if I still want that. Will that tick the box for most PE shops?
