how much more is it?

Yes, the pay difference is significant especially when you compare the call at of living vs. places like NYC. The earn/spend ratio is ridiculous

I hear Accenture pays better than B4 here.

What would a typical SM salary in advisory look like in London? B4. Understand that there is a range, but looking at a new SM in human capital/tech

Anywhere between £60k - £100k. Speaking from Big 4 perspective. 60 being if you joined as a grad and promoted straight through, upper end of the scale being as an experienced hire

Keep in mind titles can vary across the pond. Here in London, MBAs come in as managers and Associate is fresh out of undergrad.

Love how BS credit score is.

I always pay my balance in full each month and have never missed a payment, how is 8% credit utilization determined to be that big of a risk that my score got immediately wrecked, I don’t understand

I’m looking for assistance on building your own portfolio in my traditional 401K. I’ve been reading that it’s important to choose funds with low expense ratios. Also, that it is recommended to have at least one US stock, international stock , and bond. I am 24yo so ideally, I’d want to allocate 90%-100% to stocks and 0%-10% to the bond. Any other things I should be looking at?

I have been interviewing nonstop since I lost my job early September. Rejection after rejection burning through my savings. I picked up some freelance and reached out to a previous boss.
Yesterday I received 3 calls, one from my old boss he was putting in a job req to have me rehired, the second was that a job I have been interviewing for was going to present me an offer today and the third was a job offer (but that role was not a fit for me) i am super concerned with burning bridges - help

During my job search, I am getting a lot of recruiters asking for me to answer right to represent emails. These particular recruiters follow a same pattern and seem unprofessional. Shall I be aware and not sign these right to represents? Are they a scam? Or is it a cultural thing… can someone advise me, I’m based in the USA
