Yesterday I had the last round of interviews with a robotics start up for a QA Manager job. At the end of the on-site, the hiring manager told me I was one of the two top candidates and that the other individual had a slight experience advantage. He then proceeded to ask of I would be open for a QA Eng job in the event I dont get the Mgr job. I told him that I am flexible, but that we should take it one step a time before jumping to conclusions. Should I be worried?

How do you deal with managers or directors younger than you who don’t have strong leadership qualities due to lack of experience? I’m in my mid-thirties and the director of product is mid-twenties. They rose through the ranks as the startup grew so they really know the product and company but they don’t have a lot of experience managing a team. It’s frustrating to have someone lead without having the skills to lead or the insight to give industry or career advice. How have others handled it?

Always been a fan of FIRE and reading about it has definitely helped my finances but I can’t help but wonder if the movement is more about lifestyle change than early retirement.

After you achieve FI,you basically have to maintain the lifestyle that got you there.

What if you want to go on a lavish vacation or buy that flatscreen TV? Are you supposed to do away with material goods entirely? I suppose you could keep working for discretionary $ and live off interest but then you’re not retired.

Not me raging, but two SMs on my project were getting heated on a call today. It ended with a “we’re taking this offline”, that’s when you know it’s bad

Any recommendations for international relocation companies? We'd be moving from the midwest back home to the UK. Any other advice for a transatlantic move would be much appreciated!

Any notice how many of these legal recruiters took ppp loans? Sadly not shocked, but how can they not be embarrassed to take ppp loans while still advertising jobs/recruiting and bragging about all their placements on their websites.

What’s a fair expectation for my first raise? I’m in-house at a publicly traded co with ~2500 employees. I’ve been doing litigation with the company for almost 3 yrs and have only had a 2% cost of living raise so far. Graduated in 2014. Base comp is $127.5k in the Philly area. I see salaries all over the place in this site and it’s hard to tell whether mine is competitive.

Is there a way I can use my ADHD to trick myself into exercising more? Some way to make it seem more fun or trigger the dopamine? I love the results but dread working out.

Having a hard time with deciding to partake in social distance hangouts with friends. On the one hand we want to do our part in preventing the spread but at the same time weighing risks. We’re seeing many of our friends “responsibly hangout” and to be honest getting some FOMO. With so many things opening up, can’t help feeling I’m being too conservative by staying home.

I started a new job 3 weeks ago. The company is moving to a new office. I’ve been going into the office once a week. It’s a smaller company (~40 ppl), but with vaccinations and the CFO trying to plan out the offices/cubes in the new space, he asked my preference on WFH vs. in-office, number of days of each, etc going forward. I feel more productive at home and the office is 30 miles from my apartment (renting), but I don’t want WFH to stunt progression, salary, socialization, etc. Thoughts?

Hi Cognians, I'm new to cognizant

RSM TAS Senior opportunity in Chicago. Curious if anyone had any insights. Most people I’ve talked to have loved it. But curious if waiting out for a Big 4 opportunity is worth it in the long term?

Anyone that’s left FDD as a Senior or Manager to take an IB Associate role that would be willing to chat?

B4 Senior FDD new Ba$es: S1 through S3 please

Can I jump firms without interviewing in this market? S3 with 3 years FDD experience... not really interested in more than 1 conversation to get to to know the team. To me it's not worth the stress to go through a full interview process but if I received a competitive offer quickly, then I would seriously consider switching.

Anyone had any success with Corp Dev roles, particularly in tech? Really striking out recently as it seems most hiring managers are exclusively looking for IB/PE experience and don’t really value FDD as an equivalent path.

Is Valuation safer than FDD during a recession?

Recent grad in MM FDD. I talk to the sr associate i'm supposed to be shadowing a couple times a week but he hasn't had that much work for me the past 3 weeks.

What is the difference between financial due diligence (FDD) and delivering deal value (DDV) at PwC?

So how many firms have a set return to office date? How long does your firm plan to WFH?

Considering leaving FDD for competitor. Have heard so many things on better culture at mid-tier firms (think RSM BDO) vs. another big 4. Can anybody weigh in? All I know is KPMG FDD culture is definitely not for me.

what is the best way to find the rotation opportunities within EY? I’m in FSO assurance and I wanted to transfer/do rotation in FDD but I don’t know how. I’m looking outside of EY now but still wanted to see if there’s anyway to transfer internally.

How is the internal technology at RSM? Are the laptops the standard Lenovos?

Anyone want to provide a referral? KPMG, PwC , or mid market?

Anyone know any smaller / regional firms that are moving their FDD practices to 100% remote? I have no problem traveling for client/target meetings obviously, but hate the idea of being tied to a city and having to ask permission to move. I’ve seen a few remote job postings, and wondering if this is a trend.

What’s a typical annual raise in FDD or valuation?

GMAT score: include or leave off resume? I took it to apply to MAcc programs a few years ago and got a 770. No intention of going to bschool but not sure if including it is a red flag or if it helps.
