Microsoft is hiring an account executive and I’m really interested in the role. I have B2B sales experience in a different industry, but my skills include lead generation, prospecting, account management, negotiating, etc (all within the C Suite and other decision makers).
Would appreciate knowing if this is something I have a shot at with no tech sales experience and what I could expect for promotional opportunities and compensation.
Thanks for the help!

Move dilemma:
Currently @ Arthur D. Little Limited Dubai as SE Manager w/ base comp of 285k $ + 10-15% bonus. Vert limited fit w/ people & projects in the region (MEI) & not motivated by seniors. Not happy w/ the job but good WLB. Very likely to promote to Pr which would include a 20-30% jump in total comp but shift to more variable
Move to MBB as PL. Projects & people are supposed to be great and he could see himself in the long run. Comp is 170k $ + 60% bonus. Will take 1.5y to move to Pr

Alvarez & Marsal I’ve completed all of my interviews with Alvarez & Marsal over a week ago. They informed me that the team debrief to make a decision was the day after my final interview. They’ve now reached out to schedule a 20 minute phone call with the Senior Director of Operations. Are they hoping to ask more interview questions or do they want to talk logistics before making an offer? Just curious what my chances are of getting an offer since I’m waiting to make a decision on other offers.

I'm way more interested in why you decided to apply back to D after getting laid off???
(Had a similar experience and would never go back.)
I can dm you. It's not that interesting tbh
Nope! Take the offer!
No. As long as you haven’t officially started there yet it wouldn’t show up
It shouldn’t come up at all unless they requested for that information, which I highly doubt that would happen.
I just want to make sure I understand your question, are you saying that you used to work at Deloitte and then got laid off or you had an offer there but chose a different company and got laid off at that company?
I used to work at Deloitte and got laid off. Recently I got another offer there to rejoin and accepted. A better offer from another company came along and want to renege my Deloitte offer

The other company might find out, given that you worked at Deloitte before. It’s not very likely, but it’s a lot more likely in these circumstances than it would be if you had never worked there.
If you have started at Deloitte they will find out. That’s because Deloitte will be asked about your employment status anyways as it’s likely a significant part of your past experience and you will submit the name for bg check. They’ll just see “ Current employee” status.
If you haven’t started they won’t know u accepted a counter offer
Source; was boomerang at Deloitte and then saw my bg check report when I exited
