Cool - feel free to DM me re: EY.

EY chicago fdd: Formatting is 99% of the ballgame

That applies at most groups. The whole game is about formatting and data reconciliations.

Anyone have insight into FDD manager interview process? With/without fdd experience is it similar to senior? I would expect more emphasis on people skills and management as well as ability to manage client relationships right?

Hello, I wanted to mention that I work as a sports commentator, specifically about soccer. I used to be one of the main journalists for Spanish media, but since I moved to Miami I feel the general passion for soccer is very different 🥲 The energy and commitment are not even close to what I felt in Spain, where some businesses would close if the match was too important. I hope this nostalgia goes away soon.
