A female CPA brings in a $25K client, but the male partner asks it be managed by a male colleague instead. No specialty, simply re-assigned to someone else. How would you have reacted immediately?

Does the female CPA want the client? This time of year partners are rebalancing manager assignments so it could be as benign as the partner group thinking her talents could be better used elsewhere. Do you have reason to think there is a malicious or sexist motive?

Hey everyone - I could do with some advice. Not sure what I am doing wrong, but I am having a hard time getting interview calls. I am trying to pivot from consulting to the industry and targeting project/program management roles. I have been doing this work for 7+ years now (total YOE 12 years) so certainly have the right skillset. I have tried a couple of referrals too but that didn’t help either. Any advice you guys could provide would be helpful. Thanks!
