Today is my first day on the bench in over a year. Last night, I had a nightmare about being fired for being on the bench. It's promotion season and a decrease in my chargeability right now feels like the absolute worst time. I knew I was worried, but didn't realize I was this worried until I woke up.

Hey fellow 🐠, what do you think of making a fishbowl to meet up with fellow consulting professionals in the same city? To grow our network, get some more insights etc.? Would anyone be interested?

Accenture Hello, this past December I applied to a Devops role at Accenture. I didn’t get the position but I looked on their website and noticed they have an software engineer apprenticeship. I emailed the recruiter about the apprenticeship but she didn’t get back to be. But after telling me I didn’t get the position she did say to wait six months to apply for another position. I really think I would be a good fit for the apprenticeship. What can anyone recommend? Can I possibly get a referral.

Enrolled in Stern for a few weeks.
The number of the alumni and current students that go to top consulting firms FT& summer intern are countless even for a small class size.
Stern is way more than a finance school. Given its location, do you want to spend your 2 years in a rural area or heart of Manhattan? Location is almost everything for business school. (I have a friend in Cornell that frequently travels about 5 hours to NYC for events.)
