Hi all! I just got a Senior tax associate role in industry ($85k, MCOL; 17% more than I currently make). Enjoyed the people I interviewed with; my only hesitation is that the company itself has had a rough couple of years (healthcare company, had a few bad acquisitions that they’ve since shed off). Their busy season is just January and early February, with their team working until about 7 PM during the week and a few Saturdays. I’m interested, but it’s also my 1st offer; what would you do?

How many rounds of interviews do firms usually do for laterals? I have a first round coming up with a co-chair, partner and associate in the group I’ve applied to, but it’s unclear whether that’s just a screener/I’d have to do callbacks. If relevant, I’m being poached by a partner that just joined from my current firm so my understanding was that I’d be fast-tracked.

Hi guys. So I’m currently an AM in Audit (Private Equity) with KPMG. Got an audit Mgr role with BDO and also interviewing with a top PE firm for a Valuations Associate role. I strongly think I’ll get an offer but I need to accept/reject my BDO offer asap as I’ve stalled for too long just to buy time for the PE recruitment process to be finalised.
Need to decide if I should reject the BDO offer and risk waiting on the PE offer to sail through or being jobless if I don’t get the PE role. Thoughts?
