Seeking the oh so great collective wisdom of the Top Con oracles.So after the cluster mess I managed to engineer by own doing earlier this year, things are beginning to fall back to normal and time has done that thing it does very well.I'm curious as to what you'd advise as being a good strategy for choosing roles (when you happen to have multiple choices)In the past I've had a bias towards roles outside London, mainly considering the financial benefit of this (i.e. no London rent, hotel/apartment whilst at client, live with the folks = dark green bank account).Problem is this may not be the best option career wise, since you're away from the close network back at base, where all the bums that need kissing are sat. And you miss all the socials where said kissing also happens.This MO means I'm currently working in a Scandinavian capital which is even further away from the nourishing tits at base - and I'm at a point where I want to research (as a broader strategy) if this is a career enhancer vs limiter?

Welcome back. Have things settled down ? 2 things for you;-1 recent gradute (not mistake) thread desperately needs your advice; and2. nourishing tits at base - well I also worked in a Scandinavian capital and found them better and more nourishing there Seriously, depends on a few things ie where best projects are, people and prospects. I would have thought London would normally come highly on 2 of the 3 at least but might depend on the area you work ie if you are still exploring being the MC guru of love then Verona or Venice would be worth a look as no one is anyone in this game unless you know the history of Romeo and CasanovaDC
