Sorry! Super fair point. I don’t really use fishbowl all too much.

I have 2 years audit experience and 2 years middle market TAS experience.

Interviewing for a corp dev job with a middle market residential servicing company operating in US and Can. After initial review they look to be actively acquiring but more methodical and not mass buying like some of my current clients can be.

Real estate fund?

Hi fishes, what are the chances of Pwc AC bangalore rescinding an offer given the current market condition?
