🥺Want some suggestion for busy season!
What are your long term salary goals?
If you are starting as an Audit Associate some time from now with Deloitte or any of the big 4, do they expect you to have passed/completed all 4 parts by the time you start? Received the Becker Reimbursement email from the recruiter not too long ago but have yet to start. I’ve seen plenty of people get to Senior at a big 4 firm without the CPA so I am a bit confused in that aspect. Any helpful feedback will be very much appreciated.

I never ask for approvals. I just go ahead and book it.
Quit
Can't plan a vaca with my girlfriend not because of busy season but because I don't have one 😭😂
When you email your scheduler, CC your counselor and request a read receipt. My scheduler used to ignore my requests too until I started doing that. Really annoying that you have to do that to begin with. Sure, they're busy, but so are you, and you still manage to do your job, so why can't they do theirs? Don't be afraid to hold them accountable.
Lol you should follow up. Take your days off if you want
Wait, vacation needs approval from partner level??
Yup. Just 2 days, it's not like you are asking for 2 weeks or 2 months... I don't see the problems. If i were you, I would just book and let the team know you will be out.
Just ask about it. They are busy too. Explain you need to start booking for it
At EY you don't really need permission to take vacation. Just say i am blocking off this time fornvacation. I wont be available. This is not school, you are an adult. Just let the partner/scheduler know ahead of time so that yhey can have back up.
:/ really don't see why not cuz I just wanted 2 days off after months of busy season before quarter starts on next client
@pwc1 even when you are already booked on a client?
Yes, just go ahead and take it. It's only two days. Follow up. They probably simply forgot.
^Asking for partner approval for a month in advanced before sending to schedulers to book
How far in advance did you request the days off?
^cuz we don't have manager level people on the team and I'm the only senior
*for vacation
talk to manager get verbal approval. then email schedule person and cc manager say this was approved please book the pto
I jut email the scheduler and tell her to book vacation and tell her to remove the time from X client - I know that the team can make it work though. If I was unsure I would get manager approval first.
I am a Manager. Just ask...we don't bite...just busy
