I had no idea! I’m applying to a branch office in the Midwest and they are audited by a PwC in the southeast. Am I going to get in trouble for doing this?

PwC requires C1 clients monitor hiring of PwC employees for independence purposes. There should be no impact to you.

If you have to ask the question, you’re not going to be hired into a high enough roll for anyone to care

Hello Folks, Due to very toxic environment I had put down paper w/o having any offer. Fortunately, within 2 weeks of NP I cleared interviews for almost 4-5 organisations. All HR, had said that in last month of NP they'll release an offer, just so that I won't have a counter offer. Now, almost 2 weeks are left for NP to end, and surprisingly all of them are ignoring my mails, calls and texts. Please suggest. I'm losing patience as I was looking for switch since April 2022. @
