As a first year associate, I passed up on another job opportunity to make $70k base (at $60k now). It was a hybrid accounting/finance role. Did I make a mistake? Less hours overall and no busy season.

You will be able to get more if you stay a few more years. Also, B4 tend to give 10%ish raises every year. You’ll be close to $70k next year.

For EY it is clients in Banking, Insurance, Hedge Funds and Private Equity.

I’m just nervous about leaving so quickly I guess. Also, I should be able to command more if I stay longer, correct?

Command more as when I get to industry obviously

Hey guys,
I recently cleared 1st round of interview for data scientist role in Deloitte. 2nd round is with the director and most probably it will be a case study based interview. Anyone have idea, what kind of questions should I expect?

I just had the initial call with HR. I was told that Senior Analysts start at 56k and Business Operations Specialists start at 67k. I was told the next step was Junior Manager but they rarely started anyone at that level. I'm shocked. Is that accurate or are they trying to lower my expectations? I have an MBA and an MHA and 20 years military experience.
