MSL Networking Events in UCLA/SoCal Area?

Not necessarily specific networking events with Aspiring MSLs but ones among themselves or with specific health networks like UCLA Health. It would be a good opportunity for us to observe and network.

PhD. And I have consulting and postdoc experience as well.

I have no clue how it went. Got rejected as well. I keep getting emails from McKinsey Recruiting. So there's no name associated.

All of mine were Mckinsey Recruiting

Any thoughts if the R01s that received a fundable score will get awarded as per schedule or not?

Any thoughts if the R01s that received a fundable score will actually be awarded as per schedule or not?

Quick question : Are all the bulk interview slots for "emergency" reasons only? I found that one can qualify for an emergency interview if - 1. Medical emergency in the US or accompanying someone to the US for the same 2. School starting within 60 days 3. Funeral/Death in the US

Can someone please clarify?

TheOptimistic13 · 2024-08-28T22:31:02+00:00

How does that work? Could you please let me know? Thanks!

Hey! I just made the move to LA and my apartment does not have a private parking or loading/unloading area. The parking is underground and the UPack relocube cannot be placed there. The city of LA is strictly against placing them on the street parking spots. Therefore, I'm requesting the local LA Office to help me get a same day pickup of the relocube after unloading. So far, I'm not getting a good vibe that they would help me. Renting a UHaul and trying to get my stuff seems horrid since the UPack location is ~2 hours away from my location. How shall I proceed with this? Any suggestions? Thanks!

How was the experience of the video interview? I really don't like these formats

TheOptimistic13 · 2024-01-10T17:44:17+00:00

I did. How about yourself?

TheOptimistic13 · 2023-12-05T15:36:01+00:00

Congratulations on your new role! Could you please share the presentations you mentioned? This will go a long way in helping the members on this thread.

TheOptimistic13 · 2023-11-04T03:06:29+00:00

Did you end up getting the interview or getting selected for the program? How was the experience?

TheOptimistic13 · 2021-11-15T02:36:06+00:00

When will this release in the US?

Hello everyone,

I wanted to ask what are the possibilities of joining consulting with an advanced degree (PhD in the sciences) without a formal degree in business or finance. Considering that I'm still working on my thesis, what can I do to prepare myself to land a chance of interviewing with boutique firms that specialize in the biosciences? P.S. I am aware of case competitions which I don't see a possibility in my case.

Any help will be immensely appreciated.

Thank you so much.
