OP the best thing you can do is remove this app until after your interviews. Take time to meditate/workout and spend time with loved ones and laugh! You’ve clearly done the prep and met the bar if you are moving forward :) so trust that and yourself and give your brain a break to rest!
Good luck!

Relax. Final round is going to follow the exact same format/level of difficulty/ expectation as the earlier rounds. Remember that by this point you already know how to do case studies. Just maintain your composure for the final interview and you will be golden

Thank you!!

Feedback from first round interviewers were positive and I made sure to address the improvement areas they highlighted in my final round interview.
But I keep thinking I can prepare myself better (tbh at this point probably diminishing returns) and scouring through preplounge is just giving me more anxiety

How did you prep?

Sorry for the side question but thanks for answering!

Hey Gente, Im applying for jobs and I wanted to get others opinion on the race part of the application process. As an indigenous LatinX I worry that if I put indigenous it won’t tick the “diversity” box for the algorithm or recruiters. I work with (not in) the I&D dept at my company and our target recruiting groups don’t include or mention indigenous. Any recruiters here that have insight?

Which offer should I accept? Currently staff 2 at big 4 in Tax with CPA license. I want to leave tax ASAP. Both are public companies +1B in revenue and same salary. Offer 1 - staff revenue accountant so reading contracts, speaking with the sales team and legal team, a lot of work at the end of the months to close books and reconcile transactions to make sure we are ASC 606 compliant. This track usually leads to director of revenue. Offer 2 - internal audit staff so SOX and compliance projects.
