Looking into applying to ZS. Would love to chat with any current employees about the firm. Have 1 year work experience and looking at applying into the analyst role. Would anyone be willing to dm me?

I've been working in Consulting (Tech, Delivery, Strategy) for over 5 yeas now (10 years of Tech background). Started as an Senior Analyst and now a Solutions Architect. Last month Amazon UK approached me for a Senior Solutions Architect position and interviews have been successful. What's the move like, and what kind of compensation I should expect?

I have a finance degree, and I’m proficient in Excel and SQL. How long does it take to get the hang of R? Any recommendations on learning resources? R is a preferred skill for this financial analyst role I’m applying for at a tech firm.

I have sent out probably 140 applications in the last 2 weeks to analyst/project management roles across the country and haven’t heard anything back besides a few rejections. Is this normal?

I am a web analytics analyst with three years of experience who has recently been laid off due to COVID -19. I’ve been unemployed for two months. Job search has been brutal - I’ve only had one interview so far. Can someone refer me for jobs?

I am interviewing for an IB analyst position this week and it is scheduled for an hour. What kind of questions can I expect from the interviewers and what can I do to better prepare?

My org mentioned told us that there will be no raises or promotions this year but we will still have bonuses. I worked my ass off to get promoted and am at the top of the list of candidates.
My morale is so low as is my desire to do work. I know if should be grateful to have a job but at this point, I just want to get fired and be put out of my misery. I was on final interviews with Big4 precovid and I am hating the idea to be an analyst for another year. I don’t know how to cope.

Does applying online as a 1st analyst actually work?

Currently an Associate at Booz making $75k in DC. 4 years of experience as a Business Analyst on software dev projects. Had an offer for $100k with Accenture but they have went cold/MIA. Have an interview with Guidehouse next week for IT/Business Strategy, Senior Consultant. Wondering how much I should ask for? I was thinking $90-100k range? Too high? On glassdoor it shows a huge range of $74k-140k for SC’s.

Seems like Guidehouse been interviewing and hiring a lots. What is the deal with the firm? How is their level compare to other consulting firm? Consultant at Guihouse would be like Senior Analyst?

Have an interview coming up next week with Guidehouse for a senior consultant - business analyst. In the DC area. Supposed to be 3 back to back virtual interviews. Any insight on the types of questions they’d ask? Is it all behavioral? Interview difficulty level? Also, I had asked for $100-105k as the range for salary, anyone know if it’s on par with what they pay? Have 4 YOE.
