Can someone kindly connect me with Investment Banking HR/Recruiter/anyone willing to help? My friend interviewed for Goldman Sachs NY. Cleared the HireVue but didn’t get any communication further. It’s been 4 weeks now. Although the referral came from a VO but the division is different. My friend is looking for Investment Banking division. Need to get in touch with someone from investment banking to push the resume. The rolling process is hurting the chances.Thank you Goldman Sachs

Hi everyone. A PDM specialist here. Joined Deloitte 5+ years back as ‘Senior Solution Engineer -On-site’.Later in June 2017 all these ‘on-site’ folks got rebranded as PDM. Slowly started to realize how PDM is getting sidelined as a ‘discountable’ group. Sometimes I feel contract jobs are better than being at PDM , but obviously tied up with D for visa related issues.No career progression so far and don’t see any positive changes in the near future as well.I think it’s high time to call it a day.
If the future of finance is software, then I’m thinking CPAs aren’t part of that future (at least not for a while). What’s the crypto/DeFi CPA? Does that exist yet? I saw the CDAA, others, thoughts? https://www.decinstitute.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/B-prop_DEC_Institute_Factsheet_CDAA_-octubre2021.pdf

SM1. I am a SpM and happy where I am! Don't want to give up my life to Uncle D!
Also from what I understand it is getting harder to be a partner more are being admitted the MD route so something to think about as well. Life is pretty darn good on specialist track!
Thanks
SM1. MDs can come from either side but if you are specialist then you don’t really have a choice unless there is some extreme circumstance. I have seen Senior Managers go both ways and had discussions, many simply don’t want to be Partner, some want the option to leave, some don’t want the pressure, etc
Specialist executive also exists.
Do MD's always/usually come from the ranks of specialist leaders or do a lot of SM's go that route instead of PP?
SM1 if you are looking at going partner then you better change tracks now. Once you get to SpL there is no changing over and MD is all you have a choice of
I'm new to Deloitte, not sure I'm interested in becoming partner. Going to evaluate between now and next year.
D3 - while it may not be “standard” to go from Spec Leader to Senior Manager, it can be done as I know at least 3 people who have done so
