Potential black hole. Make sure your friend is getting referrals or making connections with the right people.

Firm is pushing people to consider it for staffing. I used it once for something that ended up falling through - but if memory serves, your friend should be able to see what PwC teams are looking for and submit his profile for specific opportunities.

Thanks. I will pass that along

Hi fishes,

Just need your idea/experience (if any) on the following query:
I already have an offer with CTS.
I am also getting offers from other MNCs, but for other locations.
If I wish to join CTS only, but want to negotiate with them, on the latest offer I have with an expectation that they atleast match the same amount (if not offering me more).
So just wanted to know, whether at all they would provide me a revised offer or would they be strict enough to let me go & not negotiating at all?

Im currently studying Industrial Engineering with a minor in management. I’m interviewing currently for consulting, and theres a VC course at my school that seems really interesting but I can’t fit it into my schedule without removing the last class I need for my minor. Would not getting that minor do any harm to me short or long term? Im thinking that if I end up at consulting especially no one will care about a management minor they’ll just look at the firm I worked for.
