I have been on the beach for a long time. Everything i have tried to get off the bench hasn't worked. I have had countless interviews, and it seems either im not added or the contract falls through. I am pretty sure they are going to fire me at year end and im freaking out. I hate that deloitte makes getting on a project your fault. I am not in charge of what projects you get or how long it takes to get the contract signed. I spent 4 weeks on a probono project and they dont care...

Deloitte peeps .. I accepted an offer for a senior PDM role with hopes to transition to core within a year or two. I am on a DoD project within GPS (hopefully). What is the likelihood of me being able to switch as planned. My manager seems really. I had the best interview with him and he had nothing but good things to say to HR. Is this a good sign? I’m new to big 4 consulting so assuming this will be a good way to know if I like it or not. Idk these forums have confused me now.

Should I send a thank you note after an interview or not bother ?

So I applied to Accenture for the TDP cyber security analyst role almost 2 weeks ago and haven’t heard anything back yet. I feel like the interview went very well and I sent a follow-up email shortly after the initial interview ended. The recruiter who I did the interview with said it could take anywhere from 1-2 weeks to get a response back and I’m a little hesitant to send another email. Tomorrow (11/9) will mark 2 weeks exactly. Should I sent an email asking about my status or keep waiting?
