@SM1 It is actually smart to jump every 2 or so years early on in your career. This allows you to hit 6 figures by 26-27 as opposed to waiting until 30. Staying longer than 3 years for your first or second job is just plain silly in today’s market where unemployment is at an all time low. Basic supply and demand.

@OP you should be looking at $90-100k as a SC with 4 years of experience for Federal Advisory. I had about 4.5 years of experience when I made the leap to Deloitte S&O as a SC. I was offered $105k + 10k signing bonus (Federal; no MBA).

Do note that if you decide to jump per my advice above and come in at SC level, plan to stay until you hit Manager (3-4 years). Once you make manager, you can leverage that title to lateral to another firm. This should bring you from “new manager” pay band to “experienced manager” pay band.

At that point, you will have to decide if you want to stay in consulting or leave for industry. Once you hit SM, it may not be worth leaving your current firm anymore because you’d have to rebuild your network and book of business.

4 years experience and you’re looking at a third company? Why all the job-hopping? Try sticking with something for more than a year or 2.

@SM Well its been around 2 years each- they came after me and had better offers as of career goals.

I’m with SM1 on this. 3 companies in 4 years is not a great look for future jobs. I had a recruiter straight up tell me that a candidate I referred was an excellent fit in terms of skills, but because he had jumped 3 times in a similar period of time, he wasn’t even worth the phone screen to them. If you go for it, make sure the offer is phenomenal and you love EY, because you should probably plan to stay there for 3+ years

Agree with SM1 - show longevity somewhere
