I've found that most positions require being a good bullshitter. comes in handy... -- nm - Beaker Nov 24, 17:37 1
- "communication skills"? -- nm - a-maine-da Nov 24, 17:47
I would disagree completely with this statement. what do I know, though? I just have an MBA and am essentially an internal consultant now - a-maine-da Nov 24, 17:30 7
- also, just curious, is your MBA from maine? -- nm - fedup Nov 24, 17:38 1
  - no. -- nm - a-maine-da Nov 24, 17:39
- oh really? see i was worried bc i'm not exactly sure what the career path for consulting is... - fedup Nov 24, 17:37 4
  - I would say that 70% of the people in my program returned to school to career-switch. an MBA makes it easy to leverage past experience - a-maine-da Nov 24, 17:46 3
    - how long do you think it will take for acct/finance salaries to correct? -- nm - fedup Nov 24, 17:59 2
      - financial consulting? or like, corp fi? huge difference. and what kind of accounting? CPA or no? forensic? - a-maine-da Nov 24, 18:03 1
        
        right and that's why i'm so skeptical about this program... - fedup Nov 24, 18:15
that's what i'm afraid of (wish it was tech consulting). but that company has a good rep (i.e. resume builder) and allows me to live in all of those - fedup Nov 24, 17:25
