Shatakshi, the background music is distracting. It's okay to do away with it.
Hello Shatakshi
You are doing a wonderful work.
Can you build a course related to M&A also?
This level of good content is very rare.....A gem of a Podcast
Thanks
OMG I am from Thane too!! Thank you Shatakshi for bringing such amazing professionals within our reach with such heartfelt realtime conversations. It's so amazing to know that people at the top also belong to the same humble places and origins. Have walked through the same lanes of Podar college and Matunga in Mumbai. Watching this while I am now living in the heart of Boston city, working within the Biotech hotspot around the Kendall/ MIT square of Cambridge. Please keep bringing such insightful conversations to our exposure! Thank you!
:)
😊
the intro was so powerful, amazing podcast also a bunch of topics were spoken about which is amazing.
It almost felt that he gave a raw chat n those emotions were visible (the background music is a great touch too)
Thank you. Yes Toshan spoke his heart out
I watched some snaps of this video in youtube shorts and came here to see the entire episode. Its really valuable. Thank you Shatakshi!!!
🙏
@Shatakshi Thank you for this podcast. One of the most inspiring and insightful podcasts I have ever watched. Please keep posting these types of wonderful content 🙏🙏
Very interesting! Thanks to both of you! 😊😊
Perhaps the best episode till now as per learning & knowledge concern! Kudos to you for conducting this podcast! 🙏
Glad you enjoyed it
There is something fundamentally wrong about the way Indian students and their parents glamorize high paying jobs ("packages"). Count the number of UA-cam videos that say "How to get a Rs 1 cr package" or "Want a high paying job." A person's worth is determined in India by his riches. I live in the USA (passed from IIT) and most Americans don't have this mentality. They have bigger goals in life than to work for a FMCG and make a boatload of money. Ask Jeff Bezos, Elon Musk, or even Mukesh Ambani what their goals were. They will say things like "grow their company" or "build new products", but not "make more money." They are also not eager to jump ship at the first opportunity. Bezos never sold his Amazon shares and Musk didn't either (until he sold some Tesla stock to buy Twitter). Therefore, these guys are the richest people in the world. Our greedy IIM grads will do well in life, but will never become Bezos or Musk because they don't have the staying power or risk appetite of Bezos or Musk.
Damn bhai
Very well articulated 👍 ik it's all about mentality but that's the truth of society but we can't do anything in that
That's why the Indian startup boom didn't see any builders like Elon, Jeff, Mark, Steve or Bill gates. All we are seeing is just a bunch of businessmen trying to make dhandha, nothing wrong in that but that's not building. And we indians lack in this sphere
The conversation from 37:10 just elevated to next level. Loved it! ❤
🙏
He talked everything i was finding to be answered... Feeling good that i watched it
it's too much beneficial for us. Just love it ❤❤❤
Touch wood! I felt like travelling ahead in time (from a dream career position)and giving the gyan to myself.
Learnt a great deal from Toshan (resonating the sound in reverse to my name Santhosh) today.
Truly motivational and inspirational video!
❤ Shatakshi Mam for this beautiful content. I 😍 forward for such content ahead.
Wonderful!
one of the best podcast that i have come across so far. The way sir spoke about things its what i will be looking forward to accomplish. Keep it up. I think it can a life changing podcast for most of the individuals. I will keep working harder and harder. Thanku so much.
This is very insightful on so many levels. Thanks very much Toshan and Sadakshi. BTW, the BGM is super cool😀
:)
Hello mam , i came across your channel few days back and I am so hooked to your content ,, I am learning a lot and hoping to work with you one day ..
Toshan Tamhan's talks are truly impressive. His sessions are fantastic, and I particularly appreciate the choice of background music that accompanies the talk.
🙏
i would love if there is no bg music , like i want my whole attention on ur words@@Shatakshi.Sharma
Certainly! I appreciate Toshan and Shatakshi for their insights. The video helped me grasp effective communication, emphasizing the importance of pauses, humility, and articulating key points during my consulting firm interview. I got selected 😊
Thanks to both of you. And the background music is so apt.
☺
Fabulous....great lessons for the next generation of Leaders.
:)
Great episode Shatakshi!
:)
Hey Shatakshi! This is Gem of a Podcast!! Absolute Note taking Experiences, shared by being so modest & full of Enthusiasm.

😊
Such a beautiful conversation..and music is ❤

Very helpful, thank you so much ❤
I follow you on instagram, but today I'm glad that I came across your channel. I can watch these podcasts at length while work alongside. These genuine stories inspire us a lot. Thanks Shatakshi :)
10:01 - when your dreams are big and you are in search of guide and you need an honest achievable roadmap.
glad to hear you liked it
What a great conversation....
Would request you to change the name of the video! There is so much more in this than just High Pay....
Thanks a Lot once again! Toshan and you are an inspiration for young B-school grads, grateful to have received such perspective!
Yes, Toshan indeed covered many more topics for young professionals. Good luck
This is called ultra rich content.i didn't realize it was of 1.5 hrs .i was completely lost and noted many points in my notes. I always think that how frustrated life these busy people spend and they all care about money. But education, reading a lot of books to understand the different aspect of life makes you humble.Thanks a lot.waiting for more❤
😇
Such a humble and honest podcast ❤🎉
:)
Always Insightful ❤
Credits to Toshan for being his best with all his- knowledge, humility amongst many other traits of his :)
Thank you for these kind of gem contents

Would love if you could invite someone from the Investment Banking industry; would be really helpful for many, from getting an industry perspective to tips to breaking in! Thank you!
that background music in this podcast is cherry on the top ❤
🙏
ALL Business schools are started to make money
If you are too naive to understand that nothing can make you see the light.
Almost all people who go to business schools go there to make money... nothing wrong with that but accept this reality.
If tomorrow Civil work starts paying 10 times the salary of a MBA........MOST will quickly switch over to Civil.
There is no such thing as work life balance when companies are paying you through the nose.
Crazy deadlines are set and the consultants are forced to follow these ridiculous timelines.
Maybe after many years of experience under he belt a consultant may be in a position to choose projects with 'sensible' timelines...but by that time the new batch of fresh recruits are more than willing to take up 70+ weekly work from these former overworked consultants.
Let's be real and at least have the balls to speak the truth.
Could you please post the credits for the score used in the video. Ty!
Why the music...so distracting....good interview
SIR is correct and appreciate his honesty.
Most indian colleges are management institutes not business schools.
Hence they produce good managers but not good bussinesmen or enterpreneurs
that conclusion may or may not be true.
i was taking in generalities and not specifics
@@Shatakshi.Sharma
Very good podcast. But the background music is a little annoying
I'm from Thane too, and coincidentally, he is my school classmate, till grade 10th , JK school. I pursued my Masters from Michigan too ; not from UM , Ann Arbor though! Nice👍
This is wonderful. Hope you are in touch with him
@@Shatakshi.Sharmaactually and to be honest, no! Infact , just last week, we had a meet for lunch, especially as Toshan was around , but I couldn't make, anyways, he's on our whatsapp, thanks for the same!
Sitting for CAT this Year.. Let's see how it goes 🤞
Good luck
Found the music very distracting. Otherwise really good podcast
Hi Shatakshi, I have been following your KTs here on UA-cam, digging deep into consulting, and trying to reach out to you for real guidance. As you know in India there are a lot of talented candidates who don't get the opportunity to go to IIM/IIT/Abroad for their studies but they deserve to get a chance in MBBs and other consulting firms. I have been meaning to ask you if there is really a way for us to get into the top consulting firm by bringing knowledge, enthusiasm, and skills to the table and getting hired on the basis of the same? Also, will you hire us in your company? I really need you to guide me as you are the last hope for my dilemma! suggest a way and skills we need to upgrade.
Maam what can one opt for if we are not able to go into iim through cat ?? What can be other option to go into big fore
Sir, u can write a book with ur experiences with disasters.....
good idea
Great podcast, but this background music doesn’t go well with the rhythm. It’s very peaceful music.
Great quality content.. great work @shatakshi
:)
Which is the highest paying job or who earns more between HR, Marketing, Management consultant, Product Management?
Interesting interview but the background music is distracting.
IIM Tag Plays a great role
Please make video on how to ace GRE and also suggest tips, books, free reference materials and websites available
will consider
Me on the one hand trying my ass off to get in ABC to make it to MBBs and on the other hand those tweets made me question my ambitions…
Be true to yourself in life. Even a headstart with BCG, mckinsey is great addition to your career. First join and then decide whether you want to spend your life there. Dont give up before even trying/joining.
Hi Shatakshi...
I have been following your videos from a long time. I recently got into McKinsey in a Finance role I really want to know as to how I can switch into consulting internally is it very hard or how should I prepare myself for the same 😊
Congratulations.
It can be hard. But possible- Mckinsey, BCG have different criteria/thresholds for hiring for different divisions. I wish you luck.
why go for only high paying jobs ,can we dont built and run our own company and businesss and banks can we do cover in next session how it is usefull for developing and running business and startups for enterpreneur .can we learn all those stuff without going to bschool all that stuffs ,process steps mam
"You move out of INDIA 🇮🇳 but INDIA will never move out of you"❤
Yes
Everything is good but pls remove the background music
that's rocket boys background score
:)
Back ground music is peaceful
if someone has worked in an unorganised sector , then how can he show his work experience to a mba college ??
Highlight impact of your work

Bhagawad Gita ??? A must read for all. Our ideals follow it.

Request you please provide me a guidance for Management consultant jobs.
Thank you
dar ke aage jeet hai- sufisarmast
Please cut short the podcast ...these are too long
Which is most highest paying job between management consultant or product manager?
Generally consulting pays more. But geography, firm and designation- all 3 matters
@@Shatakshi.Sharma thanku for ur reply, mam!
Aapki bate bhaut achi h pr please Hindi me bhi bolo and face to face talk ho to aur bhi acha ho jaye
Please stop the background voice or (ton)
So that we can listen properly
