Anyone seeing job descriptions even for entry level jobs requiring so much work experience? I keep getting passed up for jobs because I don’t have “enough” experience.

Two big reasons why this job market is tough, that is not spoken about, is because one, employer don’t want to spend the time, energy and resources to train people up in an inflationary environment, and two, employers want to, or in reality “hope to”, find someone with the experience to come on board that don’t need much training and is willing to get paid less than the market rate/ less than they’re actually worth.

So industry raises aren’t great but we all knew that. I have been there 6 months and got a 2.5% raise so I’m making 92k now. I definitely would have made more staying in PA but for me I needed to get away from the stress and busy season so I conceded to a small pay cut and the loss of remote work but I basically back at what I was at with salary in PA after the small raise. But the biggest benefit is my free time, free weekends, no busy season.

How long do they typically take to schedule the final round of discussions? Do they eliminate candidates in this round?

Why do law firms still request transcripts even if you have been working for over 5 years? I am just curious because they seem to be the only industry that still does it. I get it when someone is fresh out of school, but when someone has been in the workforce for 5-10 years, how are grades relevant?

I joined pwc last month, and absolutely hating it here. Each weekend has been working, 12-15 hours work day is minimum expectation. And there's extreme hierarchy, where even after you spend 24 hours working on something, the director decides he wants something completely different and you delete and restart. (Note that you request them to review and give their pov earlier on, but they never take the time out)
