Hi everyone! Is KPMG still fully remote or have they moved to a hybrid model? I’m NY based with 1.5 YOE in audit and im looking at a job posting for an Associate FDD role with KPMG, but it’s based in Boston. Didn’t find similar roles in NYC, so I want to see if I can apply to the Boston posting and just work remotely until I can “change offices” in the future. Thanks in advance!

Salary offer of $82,500 with 9% bonus for an RIA based on Los Angeles. Is this comparable to the market at the moment? Position is for an advisory associate that handles project management rather than advising.

Associate at a v30. Our firm just doubled incoming lateral referral bonus. Is it frowned up/in bad-taste to 1) actively solicit associates from other firms (who may not even be looking for a job) and 2) do the same on platforms like this?

Just got bombed my second round FDD assessment exam. Totally blew my chance with moving forward, which is OK. Up next, I’m talking to EY about a strategy & transactions associate position. Can anyone give me some tips on the interview process for SaT? Or any advice at all as I go forward with other interviews? I was really excited about this FDD role until I bombed the assessment. Now I feel like I’m not cut out for anything. Open to any advice. Thank you for your time.

Thanks all!

I just started a role with PwC as an associate how long does it take to become a senior associate.

I got rejected for an associate position after went through all rounds of interview a couple of months ago. At the same time, I also applied for senior associate position in the same group. Today, I received an email asking my availability for screening interview for the senior position. I never had this experience before so am trying to understand what to do in this situation.

Is it normal to take a hit on the base comp to pivot to PE Associate? (Even if it’s a $25k+ base hit) At the post-mba role in my T2 consulting firm, but want to pivot to PE. (HH are mostly reaching out about LMM opportunities, $2–4B) Total comp for year 1 could slightly increase due to bonus.

Thoughts on staying in IB longer term to VP/director/MD level vs. exiting at the associate level? Seems like total number of exit opps get cut down but quality of exit opps is higher (ie. senior level in PE/corp dev).

I have a technical interview for an experienced associate role at PwC Accounting advisory (CMAAS) this week. Any advice on what types of questions they will ask or what I should be prepared for? Feeling a bit nervous here

IB lateral associate looking for exit to lower hours. Ok giving up some pay. What else is on the table other than PE (unlikely in my case due to being a lateral into IB) or corp dev? I'm looking for 60 hours a week max. Thanks for any suggestions.

Senior associate at PwC = what position at Deloitte?

Doing an internal transfer to EY FAAS (out of audit). Am I being low balled on salary?

For context:
Currently an S1 in audit (just under 2 YOE); HCOL area
I also applied to PWC CMAAS and was underwhelmed with the offer.

FAAS Salary will be ~$100K (~2% raise from current aud salary); I'll be an S1 going on to my S2 year
CMAAS - Offered me a role as an experienced associate rather than senior, and a salary no higher than what EY will give me as an internal transfer

Should I be expecting more?
