At what point do you just say enough is enough? I just went through six rounds, a take-home model, personality test, and references… for a mid-level FP&A role. By the end, I wasn’t even sure I wanted the job anymore. Still haven't heard back.

You need to ask the recruiter before any interviews are scheduled how many rounds of interviews/steps there are before a decision will be made. For me, if they can’t decide after 2 interviews, I choose not to bother. Too many companies think nothing of wasting your time, or are not committed to actually filling a position at market rate.

That’s insane. I would definitely send them a rejection letter.

Yes! Let’s turn it on then. Do you really want to work for a company that will willingly string you along?

The take-home model is where I would have called it quits. I’ll go in for a bunch of interviews, but unpaid work at home is where I draw the line.

Did 12 rounds including a full day onsite I had to take a day off for. Also had a take home case study, logic assessment, personality assessment and in the end I didn’t get the offer and they didn’t even tell me, just ghosted. Competitive job market so unfortunately I’d probably do it again

That is a lot

Great question! And without getting too much into monetary policy.... Fed rates are set by the Federal Reserve which banks use to charge each other to borrow money. A lot of times these rates move together, however, a Fed rate increase does not instantaneously change the rates the bank offers.

Other types of savings account have seen an increase this year such as online savings accounts and fixed annuities.

Is there such things as FP&A positions in Big 4? If so, are there better times to make the change than others (I.e. at senior vs manager)?

My current company and many others I know about do not offer the mobility to do so until much later, which is not what I want. Thank you.
