We are. However my CM and Principal have been entirely unwilling to consider putting me up for relocation - preferring to keep me in my current office. My current office has no prospects for someone with little experience like me

I'm not sure I understand. Which firm?

What company?

BAH

Well, 1.5 months wasn't likely much of a resume builder but at least it is ready to go. Relo could work depending on your experience. In DC area?

It seems more like a negative than a positive to even put on my resume at this point, honestly.

And no I am not in DC area or even a major city area but I have been open to relocating anywhere in the country. I'm a recent grad with very little experience

I received an offer from IBM Bangalore. However I saw openings at my preferred location Kochi only after the interviews. I called the HR after getting their point of contact mail and I asked if it's possible to switch. They said I'm already tagged to a project and that they'll check from their end if it can be done.

Anyone knows the chances of location being changed after receiving the offer and getting tagged to a project?

I have not yet accepted the offer.
