Are EY recruiters automatically allowed to bump sign on bonus to 10k from 5k? I was negotiating with recruiter and she came back to me a little too quick saying she checked with leadership but offer was same base + 10k sign on (instead of 5k). Should I push back again asking for an increase in base? SC / Chicago / 5 YOE

I would speculate a quick email - hey ok to bump to $10k sign on? Approved.

It’s $5k one time. Kinda nbd for them

I’d rather get the increase in base and a smaller sign-on. If you quit before 1 or 2 years, you’d have to pay back all or half of the bonus.

Offered $90K base + $5K bonus. Asked for $95k base via 1AM email. HR got back to me 6AM to $95k no sign on bonus

If you’re “Networking” you’re doing it wrong.

Would you walk up to someone you’ve never met at a dinner party and ask for their number?

That’s what a connection request without a note is like.

Not interested.

Start a conversation. Be friendly. Be genuine. Be curious. Be respectful. Learn and exchange ideas.

Don’t only reach out when you need a job.

Get to know childrens’ names and favorite vacations.

Be a friend.

Friends aren’t a “network”.

If you go for interview and you sort of know that the person interviewing you might be curious about something on your negative on your resume like why is there a gap or why were you in XX role for so long?

Do you address it pre-emptively? Or does that show insecurity and you leave the elephant in the room and wait till they ask you?

I guess this is more in the case of networking than interview like do you make your own story?

One of the reasons I want to transition from industry to consulting (tier 1) is that I get frustrated when I have to collaborate with mediocre people.

I’m aware there are personal aspects I need to work on like my mindset, patience etc etc, but I just get so frustrated with blatant stupidity.
