I have 15 years consulting experience, and trying to land a CSA Role at Microsoft . I posted on the job site but no hits on interview yet. Any advise?
Try TSP. It's similar.
CSA is a career dead end.
What type of role would be better from a career standpoint?
CSA is all CBI and there are no customer billable hours for you. Read: you are overhead.
True I'm already fetching another thing...
Sorry, what is CBI? Is TSP a better role? I still want to be involved with some hands on and not all sales.
Consumption Based Incentive. CSA in West Europe is being handled as “pet TSPs” who end up doing pre-sales rather than actual project work. I’ve lost count of the slide decks and cool, but shallow demos I’ve delivered
CBI is actually commitment based incentive. For a role like this, one aspect of your commitments will almost certainly be consumption-oriented, but there's lots of other (business bullshit circle jerking) stuff in there as well. However, to me, csa is pretty much a career dead-end unless you really work your ass off, especially with the new csm role in play. Seems like a great way to torpedo your wlb. Try tsp or (possibly) csm.
Also true...
I'm currently interviewing for a CSA role, may I know why the role has such a bad reputation?
So does the CSA role still suck in 2021?
