Wouldn't sleeping with the CFO secure the offer?

like

I honestly am just guessing but I'd say at least 75% but a few of the interns that I took under my wing were saying they saw multiple interns coming out of their Partner meetings crying cause they didn't get a full time offer. I know in audit and tax it's like 95%- pretty sure you have to like sleep with the CFO or commit fraud to not get a full time offer in those

We recommended to our partner that the intern NOT get an offer... Partner gave the intern an offer anyway.

I heard it was 65/35. What is it usually?

Rough year across the consulting space, especially in financial services...

In theory the partners should be on the hook if there's not enough work to go around for the interns/new hires. But I bet what will happen is the partners will use the low offer rate as a sense of pride: "We only extended offers to 60% of interns, while Deloitte gives out offers to 99%." Trying to seem more exclusive. It's a little frustrating but also you kind of know what your getting into. Sincerely, good luck, interns! It really is a great firm if you can navigate the politics

Our intern was good but the standard is high. The partner didn't give her an offer b/c he felt other interns were more focused/driven.

There was indeed a very high standard this year. A lot of interns did not get offers.

Rough year in Advisory led to not as many openings as interns that were recommended for offers. Generally very high offer % (90+) is what I have heard.

Clarification: in MC

Heard from a partner that some major cuts were made for interns

Was this the case at other B4?

As someone who interned last summer in FS makes me wonder if I would've gotten one this year. Not sure how to feel haha

My groups offer rate was 60%

Curious how other marketing teams like to share resources internally. I'm considering creating a centralized hub where departments can access news, branding information, logos, premade materials and basic templates like letterheads. I'd also like to be able to give specific users access to specific things (ie I don't want everyone to have the logo vector).

Any suggestions or thoughts? Know any software for this? My instinct is just to build a website or page with logins, but open to options!

Personally, I like posts like this one a lot because:

It's not dry and dead out there. Started looking only 6 weeks back. Attended 3 interviews. Accepted one offer. Transfer approved in 3 business days. Joining Chase next week. Keep looking guys.
I just went to each of the 'careers' pages.. Updated resume to match the requirements on each posting. Called out on resume that I need immigration sponsorship. Had a cover letter for each posting.
Before that I spent money on getting a professional resume from Monster. Highly recommended. Good luck all.

I want to use these TAS roles to move into more M&A advisory roles like IB/Corp Dev. PwC comp is a decent amount higher due to the $10k salary increase so it makes the decision a bit harder. Would CMAAS make it impossible to make the jump to IB-type roles due to how much technical accounting is involved?
