Your Indian law degree is worth essentially zero in the US. You have to get into a law school, get an LLM, pass the bar, and get someone to hire you over someone who had three years of law school versus your one. Most people end up going home again.

Yes. That's who I'm talking about...

All of that can be googled.

Yeah unfortunately there's really no easy step to transferring your education to the US (this is true in most industries including medicine and law). So you'll have to start from scratch or pick a different career path

I am currently working in advertising with experience on fintech & CPG. I would like to work in tech marketing, specifically Google’s APMM program.
I’ve been studying some PM/PMM books/podcasts/videos, attending Google events, and want to keep learning more to try to prepare myself as much as I can.
What resources helped you get into product marketing/Google?
Has anyone here moved from advertising to tech?
Would love to hear from a marketer about their experience getting into Google.

Hi all- My SO is currently at a Big4 & was initially preparing for S&O roles at GCP but given the high number of ex MBB consultants hired, they believe its just more competition to get the offer & to eventually get promoted over time.

Instead, they have decided to pursue program manager or cloud consultant roles, which they feel might have a lower barrier to entry from an assessment standpoint. Not sure if the bowl agrees but would like to get your thoughts, thanks!
