Wanted to know if going from at Analyst at Deloitte to Senior Associate at KPMG was feasible. I have 1.5 years of experience working in a SOC before joining Deloitte. I wanted to come in at the consultant level but the recruiter insisted on coming in as an analyst. I have been at Deloitte Cyber for a 1 year now & it has not been a good fit. So 2.5 years of cyber experience & a Masters in CS from elite school… is it feasible I try for a Senior Associate role at KPMG in cyber?

Hi everyone, my friend said fishbowl is the place to go to help gather some info. Can anyone help me evaluate a solution role at McKinsey and an LEK associate role? Don’t have the official letter but got verbal confirm from McK. Not sure about future career path but worried about the perception of solution path when trying to leave consulting in 2ish years. As far as I know, solution is client facing and working with banks. Any advice appreciated!

There’s a position I want to apply for that requests one more year of experience than I have. I’m considering still applying for the position, because, why not? I have a friend who is a junior associate at the firm and am wondering if I should submit through the friend, or if it would be better to submit directly. I don’t want to put the friend in a position of recommending someone the firm may feel is not qualified. Any thoughts? TIA

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?

I am an expert path associate at McKinsey with 1.5 YOE + 6 YOE prior to McK. Expected 2022 TC = 200k base + 50-70k bonus. How should I position myself for (Sr) Director level jobs given my current tenure? I want to test the job market right now, but it seems like recruiters are reaching out for Sr Manager jobs with significantly less TC than what I’m making. Any tips on specific themes or types of experiences I should highlight for those positions would be greatly appreciated!

Hi Management Consulting/Advisory folks!
Which is better out of the two:
-EY India: Consultant role in Business Consulting (x Fixed , 1L joining bonus, variable as per performance)
-PWC India: Associate role in Advisory/Management consulting- Operations ( x+50k fixed, 2L joining bonus, variable as per performance)
Primary criterion for me is learning, growth prospects, culture and secondary monetary.
Anyone from these companies if they can help, Thanks.

Thoughts? Which is more competitive for HSW MBA: Stay on 1 year and get promoted to manager at MBB (3 YOE at promotion) or exit as an associate to a top PE fund but forgo the manager promotion? Hoping to differentiate my app and could always try and exit after promo but aiming to apply in 2023 and would have very limited time in the new role

@slalom, i have applied and interviewed for an associate consultant role and have passed both the technical and behavioral interview. I have an interview with a director on wednesday. looking for insight on if this is typically an interview or a meeting for an offer.

Family law associate. I run a docket of about 40-50 cases and work about 50 hours a week. I currently make about 125K (self-employed, no benefits). Between jury trials for CPS termination cases and the highly adversarial nature of family law, I find this job to be incredibly draining, as I have horrid work/life balance and struggle with constant anxiety.

I recently got an offer with a personal injury firm. 110K, full benefits, for a non-litigation/docket manager role. Thoughts?

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?

Any PWC and EY FDD referral? Thank you so much! Thinking of applying for a senior associate role.
