ATK 🐟: recruiter reached out for an informational interview tomorrow. Asked me to prep "why ATK" even though he reached out to me. Looking for insight from insiders, what makes ATK special/different?

Weird recruiter. Sounds like they should be answering that question if th3y must poach or actively expand applicant pipeline.

Operations and supply chain are big, and our largest industry practice is CIRP - cpg and retail.

I'd emphasize a culture of quiet professionalism. We succeed as teams and not individuals. We value collaboration.

Was the recruiter from ATK, or with another firm? We have used search firms in the past to identify potential candidates...

ATK1, Just to clarify the tone... someone said that about me and didn't know how to to take it.

Thanks to those who answered the question. To those who simply asked me about the recruiter, he/she is an ATK employee.

Back to this topic, what is ATK known in the industry? I know OW is FSI, MBB is strategy, ACN/IBM is tech, etc. Anything in particular? I'm planning to do research myself but wanted to get your thoughts.

SCM

Consumer goods and retail

Supply chain, procurement

I went through a pretty rigorous interview process for a marketing project manager but ultimately wasn't given job.

How do I again the experience if I'm limited by the type of work we do?

Long story short: last year in Nov 2020 I accept an offer for concentrix but unable to join due to COVID situation and got approval from the reporting manager it was only for a week.
Now recently I got offer for concentrix pune but they are asking to continue with last package which is below the baseline for this process.
When I spoke to the HR he says it's the policy and nothing can be done.
I loved the process but it would be really hard for me with the package.
ANY ADVICE WHAT CAN BE DONE
