Hi all. I am trying to determine if I am being compensated fairly. I am a tax manager (about to start my second year as manager) and have been with EY since staff 1. I was promoted to manager in June 2020 (during covid) and received a 7.5% raise. The class above me has mentioned they received much higher raises during their promotion years. My base salary is now approx. 97K. Any insights would be extremely helpful. Thanks!

As a creative, the cool shops want cool answers. I am 100% not cool. But I like horror movies and playing magic the gathering. So I guess I’d just say that. Also I live in Brooklyn, which people outside of Brooklyn (and NYC), tend to think is cool. It’s not.
Telling passionate stories is about the details. I’ve nearly died twice while taking photographs. One of the times is hilarious. So I’ve told that too.
^^ realize a couple people will know who I am based on that post. Hello friends.
Make something up. Tell them you do a drag show or MC a trivia night at a local bar. Or that the guy in dinner for schmucks who taxidermied dead mice into diorama scenes was based on you.
Or be honest and say you like to drink, watch shows and not flood the world with more useless landfill. Not insinuating that any of the above is useless by the way. Just find these kinds of quirk bait questions so annoying.
“I’m passionate about bringing an amazing customer experience to life.”
That’s what they want to hear.
Um, what?
My passions are smoking hash and making love. They haven't helped me land work but I wouldn't trade them.
What’s helped me is being able to explain how I’ve used my side passions and hobbies for specific projects I worked on. Since you’re looking to land your first gig, you might not have that experience, but think about what your passions are and how that could help with specifics of your job and what makes you memorable in a sea of other talent. Tbh I’ve never been good at selling myself. Grateful to just have a book that can do that most of that for me.
Yes. It’s a check on how culturally savvy you are, or how well read, or well traveled, or frankly, how weird you are. Planners are a intellectually competitive bunch.

We live in an era where everyone all the time can take pictures. Photography is seen as a reflexive thing, less a talent more an "ok and what do you do with that."
It's similar to how people view writing (and why copywriters whinge about people believing they can do our jobs at our level just because they can put pen to paper).
If I just showed off my short stories and essays no one reads I'd get awkward silence during that interview. So, yeah, you gotta do something more with it.
