I imagine it's quite sector based. I'm in energy and every month we have welcome-to-the-team lunches with someone new and I get cold called by recruiters somewhat often even though I'm just an analyst two years out of uni.
I'd recommend looking up boutiques as well if you haven't already, my impression working at one and talking to my ex-Big 4 workmates is that they often provide better compensation & working conditions than Big 4.
Thanks for that!
Think things are very slowly starting pick up. I know at my firm, whilst the bench may be deep across some service lines, there are some pretty important pockets of the business that are well below planned headcount, have quite a bit of work on, but are underperforming because they don’t have the necessary (and originally planned) capacity to pursue bids and deliver work. Business consulting types are a bit low on work (and have deep benches), but transaction and strategy types of activity - across Gov and sector - is growing and will probably pick up when rates drop and as we get closer to an election (when Gov gets a move on delivering priorities). Wait and see I guess
Thanks for the insight! Guess I’ll have to wait a bit longer and see how things pan out
