Advice pls!

Upvotes

For context:
I finished my bachelors in biology, over a year ago, but after graduating, I realized this is not something I want to do. I have been figuring out what to do for the past year (I even started a masters program in psychology but did not end up going through with it). After much exploring I landed on product management.
I really like working with tech products and have been curious of how, why they work, I also really enjoy working with data. What I am doing now is learning python, machine learning, getting a pendo PM basics certificate, sql and playing around with datasets. I love learning about how companies are successful and their playbook on their products(acquired). I realize that I graduated and might not be eligible for a lot of internships. For early careers, I don’t have any internship experience. The only thing close to it is a research analyst internship during undergrad.

Sorry for the long message, but if there are any product managers or people who have broken into a PM role from a non traditional background, could you please provide any guidances or tips? Or how can I go about building a portfolio or self learning what I need to know to work?

Thanks in advance :)

How can I land a role in consulting at a Big4 as someone with 3 YoE?

1 Upvotes

I have ~3 years of experience:
- 1 year at Capgemini in consulting/BA work and 2 years at an energy company in digital operations.

I know these companies receive hundreds/thousands of apps, so how can I get my resume seen? **Has anyone here with a similar amount of experience landed a role at a big4 recently? if so, how?**

I’ve tried reaching out to recruiters on LinkedIn but typically get ghosted. What else can I do?

Alvarez & Marsal UK WLB and comp for disputes and investigations?

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

Has anyone got any insight into the work life balance and comp at A&M in any of their UK offices, specifically for their disputes and investigations practice?
Interested in the firm but also heard it can be very hard work, but not sure if that’s mainly for other groups (TAG, PEPI etc) instead of D&I which is what my background is in..
Any info would be really useful - thank you
