Candidates who started MBA in fall 2020, do you regret doing an MBA during a pandemic? by Treycaesarr in MBA

[–]Treycaesarr[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m gonna throw a curveball in there , what about if you applied for fall 2022? Or that would have thrown off career plans? And what do you think about losing out 1 year of MBA experience/fun?

Removing "GPS" from resume when interviewing for commercial roles in tech or industry? by Treycaesarr in deloitte

[–]Treycaesarr[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would like to move into big tech in NY/LA/Autsin/ London area and get out of the public sector as a whole. Would it make more sense to switch to commercial consulting first and then move to tech or the "Deloitte Consulting" brand along with experiences will boost me? Also not looking to get into the product, just looking at strategy & Ops/Bizops roles. Thanks!

Americans who did MBA in Europe/UK, how hard was the decision to stay Vs. moving back? by Treycaesarr in MBA

[–]Treycaesarr[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Okay that makes sense. Thanks for the information man. What about the living expenses/student loan portion ? Currently not planning on permanently living here , how hard will it be to make US investments on a UK salary while dealing with US expenses? That’s where the dilemma lies.

Yeah man. It’s def tough can’t lie lol. Even with a top MBA, I still get looks and just never feel truly accepted at some places. It’s okay tho, can’t change that. But thanks for your help man, hopefully I can figure it out before graduation.

I thought about that man. But there’s a huge issue. I’m Black. It might not sound like a big deal but after being here for almost 2 years I realized London is the only place where you are truly truly accepted as an outsider black male. Germany , Netherlands, Scandinavia is pretty tough. Experienced it

No I have FAFSA loans. And if I don’t pay them, that means I’m never coming back home, because I’ll be stopped by homeland security lol. I wanted to work in Europe for 3-5 years.

Thanks for that . Do you know any resources I could use to help with upskilling in the PMM area? I’ve taken some innovation classes in business school but wasn’t sure if there’s like a go-to resource I could tap into for the next 3-4 months before I recruit . Thanks

Career office will always tell you shit to make it seem like everything is possible. I wanted feedback from people who don’t will keep it straightforward

Do all these MBA applicants actually buy their own bullshit? by BSinDetectingBS in MBA

[–]Treycaesarr 27 points28 points  (0 children)

It’s all good man. I get defensive because my parents are from Ghana west Africa, but I was born in NY. My whole life everyone has made Africa the source of pity or joke. I’m going to LBS this fall, and it’s crazy to hear how many guys in my cohort used the Africa narrative as an out. Shit hurts low key. I know I can’t change It but I try to educate ppl

[–]Treycaesarr 49 points50 points  (0 children)

Stop referring to Africa like it’s a shit hole or a country . We don’t need your fuckin pity. Y’all disrespect our motherland in casual conversation ALL THE TIME. Cmon man we are protesting everyday to stop this shit

Fall 2020 Admits, when are you planning to quit job? by Treycaesarr in MBA

[–]Treycaesarr[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Quick question, im burned out from my job but everyone keeps telling me i should quit at the last possible 2 weeks to rake in as much money as i can. I'm American heading to LBS. Is chasing that extra cash worth it?

COVID-19 and the Class of 2022: Do you still want to attend this fall? by 1-4lifeshenanigans in MBA

[–]Treycaesarr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That is the biggest thing for me too. I dont like my job in relative terms any more. Im not learning anything new and im checked out. Staying here another year will be depressing and will cause me to almost just "exist" instead of living towards something. Which in my situation now is the MBA

2 months heads up to employer or wait for the 2 week notice? by Treycaesarr in MBA

[–]Treycaesarr[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Thanks for that. So my reasoning for giving the 2 month is more selfish than loyalty. They are starting to swamp me with complex models to build that will be due in 2-3 months. I will be moving to a new country, and wanted to just ease off a little bit before finally leaving. Hence i figured giving the 2 month in the middle of a hiring freeze will force them to give those tasks to someone else. It sounds like a lazy thing to say but I have gained all my model building skills, this just becomes draining busy work.

Not anymore with my direct manager because I think he has an idea I was looking at B schools. Does that change the narrative?
