Fresh IIM ABC grad, want to switch jobs ASAP.

I'm a 25F recent MBA grad (fresher, Top 10% of my class, UG- old IIT). I started working with this MNC right after my graduation but the last 5 months have been very disappointing. I was asked to shift cities to my base location but have been mostly working from home since I've joined. I've not been receiving any communication from my team except ad hoc calls for short term projects where my only job is to change slide colors or copy data from one sheet to the next. I've tried being patient and I've tried talking to my senior-ups but have now come to realise that I don't want to pursue a career here at all.

I've been looking for jobs for a while but am facing the following problems-

  1. Vague job descriptions and job requirements
  2. No call backs/ rejections despite having referrals.

I'm looking to break into finance but am also open to strategy/ CEOs office/growth/ PM roles. My primary criteria for a job are a steep learning curve and having people around me that I can learn from.

Any advice/ perspective is most welcome.

In case you feel very strong negative emotions towards this post, I would appreciate it if you don't express it or at least tone it down. I'm not in the most perky of minspaces these days and don't wish to feel worse. Thanks!

Hi @GeneralPin Why don't you try your own alum group (both IIT + IIM).
I am sure you will find better leads for profiles you are interested in.

When you say finance, which roles do you have in mind?
