Partner

I am invited to interview at AWS for the Senior Partner Solutions Architect role in the Analytics segment. What level and comp should I target? I will bring 7+ years of experience in Data Architecture and Data Engineering on cloud.

If you're applying for other jobs and anticipate that recruiters will reach out to your employer for reference purposes, do you inform them before hand? If so, how? Context I am third yr associate and have only worked with 1 partner so far since graduating college.

Rant: I interviewed at a mid size firm for Senior Tax Associate role and went really well. Partner calls after a couple days to say they want to offer me a job and asked me if I wanted senior 1 or 2. I said senior 2 since I have a years experience as a senior and she was okay with it and discussed salary. She said she will think about the final offer and let me know. A week later she comes back to tell me that my small firm experience probably won’t help much and it would be difficult for me...

All prior interviews went great but the final interview with the partner went less than stellar. Seems as if she thinks I don’t have enough experience.... Is it safe to assume I’m not getting the position?

What are some great questions to ask during a partner "exploratory call" before a formal interview?

Currently at v10. Work is great, but its a specialist group, def not a revenue center for the firm. My billing rate is super high. little junior support. Zero mentorship. Basically a billing machine. Def won’t make equity partner. Interviewed with a boutique firm. Great people and similar work! I’m a senior associate. I want to give business development a try (I know I will enjoy it but not sure if I will generate business). Thoughts?

EY-P fishes, I have Partner(s) interview coming up for Manager-Deal Tech. Any tips?

Planning on applying in a year or two and leaving my current firm now, should I ask for letter of rec from partner/manager before leaving? As in I will need a letter down the line can you write out a general template that we can revisit later (while they are fresh from working with me)

I referred someone and he just sent me a long text that he is cancelling the interview (citing that he had a second thought about the position) after convincing HR and my Partner that this person is interested and can do the job. Note: He called me several times prior to the referral to follow up and even assured me that he was really interested in the position. How should I handle it?

When your final round Partner interview was scheduled, how many days notice did you receive? What kind of questions did they ask?

One time my partner and I made a fake can case study video for the Pepsi commercial. I don't know why, but I thought I'd share it today

Friend of a friend is a senior partner at MM PE fund and wrote emails to the VPs running interviews, recommending me as a "very strong candidate" for an associate role. I'm supposed to set up time with the VPs next week to introduce myself. How should handle this calI? "Hi - here's my background, call me if you're hiring?" don't think they're going to hire me without transaction experience. Fake it until you make it? Maybe propose coming in as an analyst if they say no?

Partners/Principals who have conducted behavioral interviews: what were some of your best & memorable interviewees like? What was their attitude like? Any advice for me who will have a behavioral interview with a partner tomorrow?

Partners/MDs, did you stay in consulting because you really like what you do, or did not manage to leave (eg, tried to leave but did not find compelling enough opportunities?) I’m one step away from making partner (likely 2 more years). Tried to leave 3 times - every time after a few interviews I came back and continued to suck up, because nothing was compelling enough (eg slower trajectory, more risks, or “lifestyle upgrade” is not much - everyone seems to work hard). Wonder how others think

I have a meet and greet next week with the partner in charge of the practice I'm applying for senior manager position in. Will I start off on his good side if I email him a summary of questions I have prior to meeting?

Hi, I’m looking to lateral to a local market and I saw a reputable local firm is hiring. They are looking for experience levels 2 years higher than me. I worked with a high ranking partner there last year for a deal (he was our local counsel). I will apply to this position. Should I email him or the HR? What should I say in the email? Or should I ask him for an informational interview first?

Any junior CWs looking for a job? I’ve been interviewing with a reputable LA agency and they want to know if I have a partner soooo lmk if you’re interested :)

For interview purposes, is it okay to use a writing sample that was not heavily edited but nonetheless signed solely by the partner? Our firm typically doesn’t put juniors in sig blocks even though they (obviously) do the laboring.

So I had interview with D last two weeks, partner reached out initially and had the standard behavioural and case scheduled at the same time as the two partner interview. Completed partner interview on Wed, they said they would do make their decision on Friday, Monday was a holiday—-it’s Thursday now - when should I follow up with HR?

Spoke to another B4 about an open role. Got the conversation through networking and mutual connections. After a few chats the Partner said HR will reach out to me. Anyone know if this means formal interviews are next or if they may extend an offer?

Shoulda ran out the door when the managing partner at my firm said people who ask about “work-life balance” in their interview were not considered for the job. (Sigh)

Can anyone share interview questions for a Partner Sales Manager role?

I recently interviewed for a position I was excited about. I like my job but this position seemed like a great fit. I met with five different individuals including a partner. Everyone was extremely nice. I received positive signaling and found out almost a week later that I didn’t receive the position. I have absolutely no idea why. Is it typical for companies to make you go through so many different interviews only to reject you?

Who generally posts the job postings on a big 4’s career page? In general, who should I address the cover letter to? Considering addressing the office managing partner at the office I’m applying to

Case study for a growth equity firm, take home model of a public co and then PPT and pitch the potential investment to a partner. Any tips on what to focus on in the pitch, and any bonus points items like thinking thoroughly about risk or quantifying risk etc? Where can I find example templates/pitch decks?

Do NY salary history inquiries ban apply to lawyers being interviewed by another firm to become partner? Any insight helpful!

Email Resume to Managing Partner? Or just apply online? I saw the posting online, have no connections to the managing partner or firm, but found the partner's email address on the website. Yay or nay on good form to email it directly to him after applying online?

ISO production partner for a few internal-facing videos for a spirits client of mine. need a director/producer+post (though those can be different partners!). it’ll essentially be a talking head interview + a mixologist creating a cocktail in a bar or studio space, NYC area is best. catch is that because these are internal, we’re looking to keep it lean and around/under $50k. does anyone have a recommendation for partner(s) or sound like something you’d be a good fit for?

shooting a series of videos for a spirits client, with creative centered around “talking head interviews” and mixologists creating a few cocktails. Will be internal sales team-facing as opposed to consumer/brand creative. wondering if anyone has recommendations for a solid production partner in the NYC/Brooklyn area for the shoot (and potentially edit) that could keep a 2-day shoot somewhere in the $40k range? I know, that number pains me as well...

I had the first round of an interview 10 days ago and it went well but I haven't heard anything since then. The interviewer said I'd be a good fit and told me she would pass me/my resume on to the director/partner for rounds 2 and 3 but I haven't heard anything back yet. Should I reach out and email her? If so, what should I say?

Partner is graduating from a master’s program soon and is at the final round of interviews. She indicated in her application that she will need H1B sponsorship but it hasn’t come up in any interview. At this point, should she wait until she receives an offer to bring it up? How would you bring this up?

What is the Partner interview like for a Associate Dir role in federal financial services group? Anyone go through these recently? Thanks for the help 🐠

Currently interviewing for new roles and sharing a workspace at home with my partner. I hate having him in the room when I have interviews. Does anyone else experience this? It's like I'm nervous to interview in front of him.

What would you ask a potential new partner in an interview?
