What would be the life science career track with the highest comp and fastest progression for someone without a technical stem degree but with a M7 MBA and transaction/deals consulting experience? Am I right to assume it would be MBB?

Are you me?

Private equity and banking
Otherwise MBB

Tech/Startup has greatest upside

I did a lot of work with Madison Dearborn (non-R&D).

PE exists frequently in buying assets and turnarounds or more likely carving pieces out and identifying opportunities for scale or tax benefits.

Before I moved over to rech, lots of opportunities with Chinese PE firms in particular.

I am an Software Engineer Analyst in my current organization yoe 2.8 years, and is offered an Associate L2 position in big4.
Is it correct position to go with according to my yoe or I should apply for senior associate?? Please suggest.

Went through multi-day loop for L5 SA and felt confident in my interactions. Presentation went well with no lack of answers for follow up questions. Just found out 6 days later I will not be receiving an offer, and it is policy to not provide feedback of gaps or reasons behind no offer. Also found out they ask you not to reapply for 1 to 2 years for same role. Would anyone recommend an alternate path for feedback on interview (outside of recruiter) and is the 1-2 year policy true?
