in the same boat... well, what I understood the exists can be to consulting, rarely to sell-side (IB) and even more rarer to PE. I think it depends on how acquisitive your company is and what you are doing. At mine everything is spead across many teams , all called corp dev, so my team mostly does due diligence but isn't involved in the deal process. On top of that, you can apply to M&A unrelated roles like product management etc, but corp dev is usually the best paid fuction at corporate (given you work at corporate) so pursuing a non-finance role will give you a salary discount

Hello Fishes,

So far I received offers from PwC India, Capgemini and Lexmark for Data Engineering.

More are in pipeline from KPMG GS, TechM, Accenture.

But one peculiar thing is happening. I have appeared for 4 Cognizant interviews but in all I have been rejected. Whereas most of my friends had easily cleared Cognizant. I am switching tech, so I am a bit concerned like whether my knowledge is too shallow😐

Is it sign of an Imposter Syndrome 🥺

Pls help🙏🏾
