Do i have to notify KPMG if I'm applying for a job with an audit client even if it's in a non-financial/non-audit related role? Or not until if/when I get an interview?

If you are on the engagement team, even if you are asked to interview you need to disclose it. It’s whether you will have a financial role or not. It’s that you could overlook something intentionally to favor the client. I’m sure you have more interfaith than that, that is what the standard is focusing on. It’s in our engagement letters that our clients have to notify us before any substantive communications occur.

If the planning meeting hasn’t happened yet, you are okay. If it commences before your interview, disclose. I know it’s not the fun part of the independence rules, turnover happens. Only immature partners will react negatively if you talk to them.

Are you on the team that’s auditing/providing services directly to them? If so yea if not no

Hi All,
I'm joining EY India Technology Consulting in a week. However, EY is also my client, primarily we're involved in the maintenance of their internal user interface.

I can see a non solicitation clause in my current employer's offer letter than I can't join client within 12 months of my termination.

Are this non solicitation clauses followed in reality? Everyone's has been asking me to chill, since I'm joining as scon, not a manager or with any trade secrets. Opinions pls.

I feel like every company lies about “working your way up.” You’re never allowed to blatantly say that you don’t like your position and you’d like to transition to HR or Finance. It’s almost as if once you get in claims, you’re stuck.

Are there some background mechanics that I’m missing?

Am I understanding utilization rate correctly? It’s chargeable time over total time? Charged 40 hours and had 10 hours non-charge so my utilization is 80%? If so, wouldn’t it benefit me to understate non-charge hours so my utilization is higher since they only really care about chargeable time anyways? Charge 40 hours still but only put 5 hours non-charge for utilization to be 89% instead of 80%? Or am I misunderstanding how utilization works?
