I've been interviewing with some companies, and now I have to decide between JPMorgan Chase and Globant.
Globant is more innovative, and has remote work. I will enter to work with a Sillicon Valley startup based in San Francisco. The tech stack is React, Nextjs, AWS, and a serverless architecture.
JPM is semi remote, and less innovative. The tech stack Java, SpringBoot and AWS. But I'd do more migration tasks, like dockerize projects and pass them to kubernetes. What would you choose?

If you were offered an interview, your credentials suffice. Focus on your own performance. You’re definitely capable. There are swing factors that might tip the scales if all else is equal between two applicants, but these are edge cases that rarely surface.
Hey, I’m ex IBM, current BCG. They were very impressed with my IBM background, and my second last partner interview asked me stuff like, “If IBM were a client, what advice would you give them?”
Go study the Victor Cheng case interview stuff like a beast.
Feel free to DM me and I can give further advice.
Unfortunately I don’t know any recruiters in the space, and I’m not sure they’re really used by MBB anyway. I was a cold application. But I did research my arse off in figuring out what a strong application would look like.
If they're interviewing you, it doesn't matter what your background is anymore other than selling yourself in the fit. You got it bro/sister
Will do @bcg 1. Have some unique and interesting experience from IBM, but I previously thought all laterals were Ph.Ds/of that caliber. This next month will be a grind but doing my best 👍.
Thanks for the encouragement!
Thanks @mck, definitely needed that. I figure this could be life changing if I can study hard. Trying my best to craft a story and do well on the case. Any tips? I’ve never had a candidate led case before (IBM was a walk in the park, same with ACCN/etc.)
If you're an expierence hire candidate with deep expertise in your area. You would be fine with just grabbing table stakes (pass airport test, do good enough on cases, have a good enough why and be a cultural fit). So don't freak out, just follow advise from MCK1. Goodluck
For what it’s worth - junior level role. either A or C
Thanks ix!
Does anyone have any case resources they can share? Specifically looking for ways to practice cases. Currently having a hard time finding them
Look for the case books of MBA schools, there are plenty of cases and some are pretty good
