Anyone at EY know anything about new hire start dates? I've heard that "I'll hear soon" for months now. I would understand if I was in consulting, but I'm audit and every other Big 4 audit associate has their start dates.

When do you finish school?

If you are in your senior year, I would recommend to applying to other regional firms and then after a few years of experience, if you are still motivated, going to B4. Bad time for all audit firms right now.

Don’t lie to him. If you stay on the higher side of meets expectations for your evals you’ll be fine. They start layoffs with below expectations and then if they need to cut more they’ll go to the lower end of the ‘meets expectations’ group.

Everyone is having layoffs or is about to. Doesn’t matter if your B4 or not 2nd year in a row across the board. We delayed our October hire last year until mid December.

I pray I don't have to start in Dec and just get throw into the busy season fire

Contact the recruiter. The start date should be in the offer letter they gave you.

What a coincidence. I just got my start date and I didn't get pushed back.

That doesnt sound very promising😂

Anyone who has started up a side hustle whilst working in consulting - is it generally a good idea to let your employer know or will they make your life difficult/try to push you out if they know?

(Context - I need the extra income to have a shot at affording grad school, I work for a small boutique, job contract was ambiguous on the issue. Side hustle is selling stuff I make as a hobby on Amazon)

Thanks!

Hello anyone reading this! I wanted to ask for any realistic, recommended job positions from someone with more knowledge and experience.

I have 3 years of experience in management operations but also have 6 years of experience with child care, is that why I may be getting rejected? Maybe I’m overthinking my resume? 😅

Hello RSM coworkers! I am thrilled to be moving to RSM into a Scheduler roll. I just found out yesterday and want to be as prepared as possible in the next steps.

So here are my questions.

How long does the background study take? I'm guessing admin staff have a study that is faster and less complicated than someone in Tax ect.

When training at home what did you need that wasn't supplied by RSM? My home office is well stocked but I want to be as prepared as possible.

Thanks in advance!
