What are the best “marketplaces” for consulting freelance/gig work? I’m familiar with BTG, Catalant, and Toptal, are there other leading ones to think about that pay former consultants for project/staff aug type work?

Been asked to present my current client’s plan and PCA in second interview for a role. Am I being over cautious by not feeling comfortable with this?

Would you take a weekly travel project in Seattle or San Francisco right now with the spread of the virus?

How to avoid immediate staffing after completing the one project?
Somebody advice on this please.
I literally need 1-2 weeks bench/off time.

Hi

I have an work experience of 14 months in Domestic BPO and 28 months of experience in International BPO. Currently I'm working on agent level on a CTC of 25k but unfortunately i was not able to complete my graduate thats why i am not getting any chances to get promote nor I'm getting any salary hike, so if anyone can inform me where should i have to apply so i can get more than my current CTC...

What are your client follow-up/communication policies or practices? I’m hearing more and more that clients don’t like the long periods of time with little to no contact. From my perspective, since I bill for my time, unless I have an update or need something, I don’t initiate a call. Also, clients hold on to important info and don’t initiate a call cause they’re waiting for me to communicate with them.

Curious what the base and commission structure is for inside sales and associate director of sales in biotech (also anyone else who wants to share pls put industry). Paid hourly or salary? At the biotech company I work at avg inside sales is $62,632 with a $3500 per quarter cap. Commission structure is % based on sales quota reached vs capped (not a direct % of sales). I’m underpaid at $53000 with $3500 cap per quarter.

Is there a corporate way to bring up to senior leaders that an IC is causing issues across multiple teams because they are demanding and also doesn’t collaborate well? The IC gives vague “direction” then says they are too busy to clarify. They also refuse to use our project management/ collaboration tools.

What is tech consulting hike ? For staf 3 senior

Blackrock. Got a informal offer but no follow-up with a contract. Noted they are working on it, but does it really take this long or red flags? How much longer would you wait?

Hi Fishes,

Does anyone know about TCS Digitate? Can you share some reviews about it?

Thanks!

It's sad to see people with 2-3 years of experience getting paid more than you when u have double the experience. 😄 Best part is they are still complaining of getting less. Well I guess you should never settle. New gen is giving a hard time to the experienced folks. I think this is the high time to upgrade your skills. Come out of your comfort zone and start looking for new opportunities. I think this is the best time to switch if u haven't already in quite some time.
Thoughts 💭 ???

Hey everyone - I could do with some advice. Not sure what I am doing wrong, but I am having a hard time getting interview calls. I am trying to pivot from consulting to the industry and targeting project/program management roles. I have been doing this work for 7+ years now (total YOE 12 years) so certainly have the right skillset. I have tried a couple of referrals too but that didn’t help either. Any advice you guys could provide would be helpful. Thanks!

I’m dealing with a difficult management situation and don’t know what to do, how would you report someone when nobody really cares what’s going on or is automatically going to side with the other person?

Already slept through the first half of the work day. Happy Monday !

I don’t like Chicago. It seems that I will have to move to Chicago in the fall. How do I survive this

Any contract family law attorneys in Kentucky?

is that Verizon the same Verizon that throttled firefighter data during the California fires??

Anyone else into idex, zom and Mara?

Trying to chart my next move and not sure what direction to go. All I know is I’m tired of being always “on” in a client-facing environment.

Any podcasts, books, etc I can read for insight into more internal roles like biz ops, corporate dev/strategy, other??

4 YOE total all in consulting. Currently a SC. Clients/work have been commercial healthcare implementation & public health strategy, risk, process imp etc.

Had 2nd round with HM but noticed the job posting was pulled 2 days ago. Getting the vibe they’re planning to fill it internally. Any other telltale signs that’s the case?

Any advice on landing a strat & ops role in a tech firm? The JD is my dream role, but these opportunities are few and far between, and yet I keep getting rejections even at the CV stage. Currently in a DD shop, so could be a fit issue (but I can’t pivot…)

I'm a US citizen living overseas, want to move back home but would prefer to get a job there first. Is it possible to do almost all the interviews remotely? And after getting the job how long could I wait to start? (Gotta find a place to live etc). Looking for jobs in software, FAANG, consulting, that kinda thing.

Anyone aware of tech/cybersec companies advertising Worldwide remote roles? I’m looking to move to a country in Europe not in the EU, and currently hold a UK passport and citizenship.

I've become really jaded about consulting. I find all so often you need to tell the client what they want to hear to keep their business and I feel like so much of the what I recommend doesn't actually get implemented. I'm looking to make a career switch so I can both create and execute on my strategies. A product management path seems very promising for this.

Does anyone who switched from consulting to product management have any recommendations of h helpful PM books, courses, or programs?

Exit opportunity at JP Morgan.. Executive Director, all-in at 300, base at 200.. I am being low-balled right? I am a tenured EM. Thoughts on what might be a good range for this level in the industry?

Need some advice, I’ve gotta make a hard decision pretty soon here - I currently love my role, people I work with, and my company, but due to personal life circumstances I need to make more money, I’m struggling to find the right place/role to apply to for that - does it make more sense to go into industry or jump to another professional services firm?

Has anybody made the move from tech consulting (implementation focused) to a product/SaaS company in a Solutions Architect/Engineer role? What's the transition like? Pros/cons of each?

Anyone know of orgs with an emphasis/value teaching and learning?

My friend is working for a non-profit, has lots of transferable skills, and is willing to learn…but his job applications haven’t gained much traction. I think it’s because he’s looking to move towards a more corporate org and those recruiters don’t necessarily know what to make of his past experience.

Hi all. Currently at university majoring in MIS, graduating this Spring, just accepted a full time Consulting role at Crowe in the Cloud Solutions discipline. I know it’s early for this, but I’d like to get into Product Management for a FAANG caliber company, and am not sure what career path I should try to focus towards. Should I be working towards an MBA? What positions should or shouldn’t I be working towards to set my resume up? Any certs to check out? How many YOE might I need?Thanks a ton

Anyone witness slackers who got into companies you have no idea how? Had a coworker who does jack chit at work besides chatting on Facebook yet lands at a faang company? I guess if he brings the same work ethic he will be spit out for sure. Or maybe he just had no interest in doing project work.

Have a onsite with the Google Finance Ops team in a couple of weeks. It looks likely they have been on a hiring spree for process and program manager roles. My background is in supply chain contd...

Hello All - looking for links, resources , samples on interview prep/practice for sales , account management, partner management, practice management at FAANG companies like amazon, google, microsoft

Got an offer. But, the employer is not willing to wait for year end joining bonus. This is already an earned bonus for FY21 with payout 3 months later in Dec.
The sign on doesn’t cover the year end bonus with a gap of 18K. Otherwise, I want to accept the offer. How would you approach this conundrum?

For Series A or B startups, if you have 5-10 yoe, what kind of upside are you looking for assuming you’re able to sell your equity by the time it vests in ~4 yrs? 500k, 1M, multiple MM?

Is asking expected hrs during the offer phase a reasonable question? It's a startup and I just want to know if it's a 40 hr gig or an 80 hr gig

Have an upcoming FB loop interview next week. And today i got reached out for another role that i applied at FB, should i bring this out to the hiring manager during the loop? Wondering if this would make any difference perhaps speeding up the decision process. Any thoughts?

Where do general management consultants exit to ? I feel I don’t have any substantial skills. I am a jack of all trades (a good one, but still).

Switching from consulting to product managment role. Any recs for prep (books, online courses, etc.)? Thank you!!! 😊😊
