Our study investigates not only Indians, but also provides the first multivariate analyses for Bangladeshi, Nepalese, Pakistani, and Sri Lankans. The focus is on second-generation South Asians, but some descriptive statistics are shown for first-generation immigrants. In comparison to Whites, the educational distributions of first-generation immigrants are bimodal to varying degrees across the South Asian groups. However, with the exception of the Nepalese, all of the native-born South Asian groups obtain higher levels of education than Whites. Poverty among South Asian groups tends to reflect their educational levels so that poverty rates decline between the first-generation and the native-born, but second-generation Bangladeshi and Pakistani have somewhat higher than expected poverty due to family size and composition. Second-generation Indians, Pakistanis and Sri Lankans are more likely to be affluent than Whites, and these differences are partly but not fully explained by educational and other demographic characteristics. Other findings provide no support for the popular claim that the wages of second-generation South Asian groups are disadvantaged in comparison to Whites. https://lnkd.in/gfy_fssf ⭐ 𝗠𝗮𝗱𝗲 𝗢𝗽𝗲𝗻 𝗔𝗰𝗰𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗟𝗶𝗯𝗿𝗮𝗿𝘆’𝘀 𝗢𝗔 𝗣𝘂𝗯𝗹𝗶𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗔𝗴𝗿𝗲𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 Learn about our OA Agreements: https://bit.ly/hkbuOA #research #article #sciology #socialscience #science #SouthAsian #asia #Amercian #characteristics #white #Bangladeshi #Nepalese #Pakistani #SriLankans #education #distribution #Indians #firstgeneration #secondgeneration #immigrants #hkbu #library #openaccess

Who works for VC-backed startups, and how does VC change human capital acquisition in the firm? 💡 👩‍🏭 👷‍♂️ Delighted to announce a new working paper, joint with Gosia Ryduchowska (BI) and Su Wang (Shanghai Tech), which uses resume-level data. We find: - After the first investment, start-ups increase hiring, employment and separations (compared to similar firms); 📈 - VC is associated with an increase in the firm organizational complexity: start-ups add seniority levels (from the bottom) and departments (support functions like finance, marketing and admin); 👩‍💼 👷‍♂️ - Organizational changes lead to changes in the workforce, expecially more women and minority employees. The increase in minority does not stem from changes in hiring strategies; 👭 - But hiring strategies do change in some dimensions: VC-backed firms become much more likely to hire people from other VC-backed firms! 🕵‍♀️ https://lnkd.in/duG_NfVt

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐄𝐟𝐟𝐞𝐜𝐭 𝐨𝐟 𝐎𝐫𝐠𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐳𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐂𝐚𝐩𝐢𝐭𝐚𝐥 𝐨𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐂𝐨𝐬𝐭 𝐨𝐟 𝐁𝐚𝐧𝐤 𝐋𝐨𝐚𝐧𝐬 By Wu Qiang (Professor of Accounting) at School of Accounting and Finance, The Hong Kong Polytechnic University. Organization capital is “the knowledge used to combine human skills and physical capital into systems for producing and delivering want-satisfying products” (Evenson and Westphal (1995), p. 2237). It consists of four elements: human capital, values and norms, knowledge and expertise, and processes and practices (Lev, Radhakrishnan, and Evans (2016)). Thus, organization capital is partly firm-specific and partly embedded in firms’ key talent, and consequently is shared between firms and their key talent (Eisfeldt and Papanikolaou (2013), Li, Qiu, and Shen (2018)). The literature shows that organization capital is an important intangible resource for firms and is growing in importance (Corrado, Hulten, and Sichel (2009), Eisfeldt and Papanikolaou (2014), Lev et al. (2016), and Falato, Kadyrzhanova, Sim, and Steri (2022)). They find that organization capital is negatively related to the cost of bank loans. This finding is robust to additional analyses including those that address omitted variable bias and reverse causality. In addition, they find that organization capital reduces all-in-spread-undrawn. When they decompose the bank loan cost, they find that organization capital increases facility fees due to its risk-engendering characteristics. Finally, they find that organization capital is positively associated with a high likelihood of the presence of inventors and innovation output, consistent with the argument that organization capital is embedded in the key talent within a firm.

Top consulting firms offer starting salaries of up to 6 million yen for fresh graduates.

The main goal is to analyze the client’s current situation and issues, help them develop strategies, improve operations, or solve specific problems. The consulting industry covers several fields, including management consulting, IT consulting, and strategy consulting, all aimed at enhancing clients' competitiveness and efficiency. Among these, IT consulting is the most common field for international students. Main Types of Consulting Firms: Strategy Consulting Firms: Focus on management and operational strategies, including McKinsey, Bain & Company, and Boston Consulting Group (BCG).

How to Prepare for a Consulting Interview? When applying to consulting firms, it’s important to tailor your motivation based on the type of firm. For example, comprehensive consulting companies value applicants who can offer diverse solutions and provide implementation support. Attention! At this year’s BCF in November, many consulting companies are actively recruiting, including Accenture, Boston Consulting Group, Fujitsu Group, L.E.K. Consulting, Titan Consulting, EY, TATA, and Bain & Company. Although these firms are English-friendly, you might still encounter Japanese interviews, so be sure to prepare for basic Japanese interview questions. KinC specializes in helping English-speaking talent (both fresh graduates and mid-career professionals) secure positions at foreign companies in Japan.

I'm delighted to share that our paper "Contagious Stock Price Crashes along the Supply Chain" has just been accepted by Production and Operations Management, a UTD24 and FT50 journal, We discover delayed transmission of stock price crashes from major customers to suppliers along the supply chain (SC). Our findings indicate that the information opacity of suppliers is a factor contributing to this delayed crash contagion. Moreover, customer operational incidents have a greater contagion effect than financial incidents. Additionally, we find that suppliers respond to customer stock price crashes by diversifying their customer base, enhancing operational efficiency, and improving product quality. However, among these actions, only the improvement of operational efficiency effectively mitigates the adverse impact of customer stock price crashes on suppliers. Overall, our findings provide new insight into the distribution of risk factors across SC networks, highlighting the critical role of operational improvements in bolstering the resilience of firms to SC risks. I sincerely appreciate the insightful and constructive comments provided by the editor (Karen Zheng), the Senior Editor, and two anonymous reviewers. Special thanks go to my coauthors Buhui Qiu, Andy Yeung, and Cheng (Colin) Zeng for their excellent work and contributions. It has been a great pleasure working with them!

🚨 𝙒𝙖𝙣𝙩 𝙩𝙤 𝙙𝙞𝙫𝙚 𝙞𝙣𝙩𝙤 𝙖 𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙡-𝙬𝙤𝙧𝙡𝙙 Boston Consulting Group (BCG) 𝙘𝙖𝙨𝙚 𝙘𝙝𝙖𝙡𝙡𝙚𝙣𝙜𝙚? 𝘿𝙧𝙤𝙥 𝙮𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝙚𝙢𝙖𝙞𝙡 𝙞𝙣 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙘𝙤𝙢𝙢𝙚𝙣𝙩𝙨, 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙄’𝙡𝙡 𝙨𝙚𝙣𝙙 𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙧 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙡𝙞𝙣𝙠! Lately, I tackled a BCG case that taught me key consulting strategies every consultant should keep in mind. Here’s what I learned: 🔍 𝟭. 𝗦𝘁𝗮𝗿𝘁 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗮 𝗦𝗶𝘁𝘂𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗔𝗻𝗮𝗹𝘆𝘀𝗶𝘀 Understanding the client’s environment is crucial. Begin with the 𝙨𝙩𝙖𝙩𝙪𝙨 𝙦𝙪𝙤—the current market, consumer behavior, competitive landscape, and local regulations. This foundation allows you to assess which solutions may work best. 💰 𝟮. 𝗔𝗽𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗮𝗰𝗵 𝗚𝗼𝗮𝗹𝘀 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗮 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗺𝗲𝗿𝗰𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝗟𝗲𝗻𝘀  When evaluating initiatives (like setting science-based targets), view them as you would a new market entry or product launch. No company pursues an idea without assessing 𝙛𝙞𝙣𝙖𝙣𝙘𝙞𝙖𝙡 𝙧𝙞𝙨𝙠𝙨 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙧𝙚𝙬𝙖𝙧𝙙𝙨, so always consider the fiscal repercussions. 💼 𝟯. 𝗘𝘃𝗮𝗹𝘂𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗖𝗹𝗶𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗖𝗮𝗽𝗮𝗯𝗶𝗹𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗲𝘀   Analyze whether your client has the resources, structures, and systems to pursue your recommendations. If internal capabilities fall short, you may need to recommend 𝙨𝙩𝙧𝙖𝙩𝙚𝙜𝙞𝙘 𝙥𝙖𝙧𝙩𝙣𝙚𝙧𝙨𝙝𝙞𝙥𝙨, 𝙝𝙞𝙧𝙞𝙣𝙜, 𝙤𝙧 𝙖𝙘𝙦𝙪𝙞𝙨𝙞𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣𝙨 to support them. 📊 𝟰. 𝗟𝗲𝘁 𝗗𝗮𝘁𝗮 𝗚𝘂𝗶𝗱𝗲 𝗬𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗥𝗲𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗺𝗲𝗻𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀   Data is a consultant’s best friend. Gather quantified insights, like consumer surveys, cost analyses, or competitor data, to back up your ideas. Choose data that provides the 𝙨𝙩𝙧𝙤𝙣𝙜𝙚𝙨𝙩 𝙨𝙪𝙥𝙥𝙤𝙧𝙩 𝙛𝙤𝙧 𝙮𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝙨𝙤𝙡𝙪𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣—only objective, measurable data can turn insights into actionable results. 🎯 𝟱. 𝗕𝘂𝗶𝗹𝗱 𝗖𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗿, 𝗪𝗲𝗹𝗹-𝗦𝘂𝗽𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗥𝗲𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗺𝗲𝗻𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 Once you have the background and data, your recommendations should be 𝙨𝙥𝙚𝙘𝙞𝙛𝙞𝙘, 𝙛𝙚𝙖𝙨𝙞𝙗𝙡𝙚, 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙖𝙡𝙞𝙜𝙣𝙚𝙙 with the client’s values. In this case, it was vital to address the client CEO’s passion for reducing environmental impact—every suggestion needs a clear, data-backed rationale. 👉 What approach do you take to tackle consulting cases? I'd love to hear your thoughts! #Consulting #BusinessTransformation #CaseInterview #BCG #Strategy #DataDriven
