Deloitte What would be the right level to target within the strategy organization. Currently a Consultant at another Big 4 strategy equivalent with 4 YOE. Should I be targeting roles at Senior Consultant level or Consultant?

Don't kid yourself into thinking you can pass yourself off as a Senior Consultant when you're truly at Consultant level. I've seen your types in a gazillion interviews and it's very easy to tell when someone is trying to upgrade themselves. I will not be providing any tips, you should show up with integrity.

I came into D at SC with exactly 4YOE but I also had a hot skill and it was covid hiring wazoo. Hard to swing with only 4YOE.

They’ll start you at C and you’ll have to negotiate to SC. The single biggest checkbox to secure SC is that you’ve managed/ led others, eg workstream lead, team lead, etc with juniors acting on your guidance.

These days it may be a much harder sell idk

Depends on what you were doing at your current organization and the level of responsibility etc. but generally with 4yoe you can target both levels.

Hi everyone,

I have got the ey hr mail stating i should provide him with aadhar card, information sheet and latest resume for a audit and assurance contract for 6 months as iam a semi qualified CA.

Here my question is should i take this opportunity. Cause since this is only for 6 months. After that, what i can do, where should I try to get the job?

In mid size firms, people won't pay as much as big 4 pays.

Should I take it or am I making a mistake by taking this.

I understand that many individuals use this strategy but I think investing in index funds for the long haul is better from a wealth accumulation perspective, without even factoring in tax implications of 401k
