Worked in Financial Services and Wealth Management for 12 years. CFP working in the banking channel and completing my MBA within a few months with a focus in Mergers & Acquisitions. Really can’t take the stress and compliance involved with being an Advisor anymore I’m losing hair everyday. Any suggestions where to go?

MBA background check: do they do detailed reviews of your essays? Like check anecdotes? Some of my verb choices likely give myself a bit more strict than I deserve. Do they call other managers?

Has anyone done an MBA program at university of phoenix? Pros or cons?

Long drive tomorrow. Does anyone know of any on demand CFP continue education courses out there? I’d love to knock out 15 hrs of CE on this drive, if able. 🤦‍♂️🔫🤢

For anyone that is CPHQ certified - how has this certification benefited you? Do you think it has improved your job prospects? Thanks in advance!

Hi, I'm a Senior Consultant at a Mid Size Healthcare/Med Tech management consulting firm. I have about 5 years of non consulting experience and 1.5 years of consulting experience. I have an MBA from a pretty reputed school in Europe, and a masters in Biology.
I'm moving from Europe to New England for person reasons.
I'm trying to get an idea for what the market salary rates are for senior consultant and engagement managers in Life Science consulting firms - ZS, IQVIA, DRG.

In one month is my mid term review.. Should I let my mentor know I'm applying for mba this year now or should I wait till after the review session? I'm afraid mentioning going to b school would hurt my "fast promotion". What's your guy's experience? :)

For 🐠 with a MBA!! I am currently a FT consultant, and PT MBA student. As I complete my MBA, I am planning on my next career move. I could either stay at my current firm or jump ship.

If you are open to sharing, I would appreciate knowing your salary offered to you and firm name, once you had onboarded to said firm with a MBA.

Expected salary for ESG/Sustainability Senior Consulting roles? 5.5 YOE in ESG impact measurement. Non-MBA. Based in Philadelphia. Looking at roles at all four of the Big 4 firms.

Does anyone think that UK Consulting significantly differs from US Consulting? For instance, there seems to be far less emphasis on an MBA in the UK for career progression

ZS 🐠 - can you receive sponsorship for MBA prior to having tenure of 3 years? If not, what is the downside of applying after 1 or 2 years? I am coming in with 3+ YOE in consulting, so my application would be competitive for next fall (or ‘23)

Hi, Fishbowl! Just graduated with my MBA and finally looking to put my degree to work after helping run the family business a year after I received my bachelors. Looking for a remote position, preferably analyst role or associate analyst to get started, in tech or supply chain fields. Any leads would be greatly appreciated!

I got my MBA, but still not earning what I feel I should be paid. I here all these stories about how MBAs can start at 100k plus. Any stories out there or tips?

Diversity quota is real: both for B-School admissions/scholarships and MBB recruiting.

Readers be warned. Your skills don’t matter as much as you think.

That is all.

MBA admit here and have to put down a deposit soon, having serious cold feet right now due to the covid situation and potentially having to start virtually. Would love any perspective on how it's been particularly socially and what your schools' outlook on the fall is

Can we do External certification in EY and reimburse those. If yes which portal helps in doing that.

If you are a direct promote to the post-MBA level, do you get the same exit opps + comp as the MBA hires?

I am doing my MBA on side. I am looking for ideas on what workshops or session series I can conduct that relates to exciting non work topics or work related (this would be boring though). If you have any other ideas throw it my way.

Im strongly considering an MBA. Only thing that deters me is cost. I’ve heard of some tier 1 firms that will offer tuition reimbursement for returning interns post-MBA, how common is that? Also considering pivoting to a firm that offers scholarships. Any tips/insight on this? Thank you!

Anyone know of any tech jobs out there that seem complex? Ones that someone can do with zero schooling but lots of experience behind them?

I am so conflicted and not sure what to do. A company I wanted to work for was not ready for hire when I first reached out in Sept. Since then I have accepted a job at a outpatient oncology clinic, starting in Jan at a renowned hosp. Having said that the other company does more of what I was hoping to do when I left my previous job. The company is a vessel for new ideas in healthcare helping their community specifically with seed funding, & launching their own programs. I have no idea what to do

I spoke with a recruiter recently about a position in her company and before we even began talking about the job, she asked if I needed an sponsorship, I told her no, I dont need one. But she continued to press on the subject until I had to tell her I was a US citizen. I dont know why, but the whole conversation made me extremely uncomfortable. So my question is, can recruiters ask you about your visa/immigration status even when I told her I didnt need a sponsorship??

Does anyone have experience with Bain’s Innovation & Design track? Interviewing now and trying to learn more :)

I am 25 F. Working in Aerospace & Military Defence Co as a Technical Buyer. I have 2 years expierence within administrative roles, 1 year in procurement. I got this role after interviewing for one below (purchasing assistant) the salary for that role was 21-24K. I was already on 24K so they offered me the same salary - however, the buyer role came up and they offered me this instead but same salary -24K. I have a pay review in April, I want to ask for 28K, is this too much?

What are your thoughts of consultants and auditors doing client work in a coffee shop, using said coffee shop’s wifi?

As an auditor, do we need to worry about whether signatures are legit? Like if clients mark their initials in pdfs using simple text box, can I accept that or am I supposed to get an email approval

For those of you with high-functioning anxiety/depression/PTSD/OCD and similar diagnosed disabilities, how do you cope? What sorts of work accommodations do you receive or where have you found the best working environment? Is government a good place to be? I’ve heard about “big companies” being good being thrown around as a general idea but I don’t trust anyone enough in HR at my “big company” to disclose anything to them. Thank you so much in advance.

Should I decline the offer and ask to be considered for a higher role that better fits my qualifications? The offer I had was with a great bank but I'm overqualified for that. Its been hard to find a job because I dont have prior experiences.

I graduated with my MBA in finance in 2020 and began working at a bank as a Management Trainee. 2 years later, I am an assistant to a financial advisor studying to become a financial advisor. However, I have to do this on MY time and not the bank's.
I am not in a Management position, I make as much as a teacher in a good district and I just don't feel my overall self worth at this job. Does anyone have any advice that can help this situation?

Just found out that end of the year I will be promoted from analyst directly to VP and since it’s such a large jump I’ll be the lowest paid VP in asset management at only $135k TC. Should I stay it out and wait for TC to align or take the promotion and jump ship bc I will likely get paid more elsewhere given how recruiters/other companies eat up hiring recently promoted ppl from other firms?

Is there any way to travel or live internationally while working for the US government? I’m working in finance and accounting. Would love to know how and where.

Looking for roles in PE Business Development so let me know if you hear about a fund hiring. Or if you know someone that will speak with me or a good recruiter in the space, any leads would be greatly appreciated!

I have a contact who is a hiring mgr at a company I want to work for. He told me he has an open role for me and set me up with 6 interviews over a 2 week period. They all went really well and HR said I’ll most likely be moving forward to a site visit. But now my contact has ghosted me. After I made 3 outreaches he had his aa schedule time for two weeks out. Why am I being iced?
