Do you guys get reached out a lot by legit recruiters? I’m 4 years into PwC Consulting and don’t get much proactive traction from real recruiters (some headhunters every now and then). Also, visa situation is always a detriment. Anyone feeling the same one?

A headhunter placed me at BCG. Don't discount them too heavily.

I'm not a partner or anything like that. 10 yoe.

The headhunter called me for a different role, but I mentioned BCG and they had placed a few people there before.

Some recruiters only reach out to meet their quotas required by their managers. 🥶

Had an interview for an associate position at Citi. Interviewee was based in London and I’m in NYC. The only interview time that worked was 6am. I was barely functioning and feel like I truly messed up in my answers because I couldn’t not think clearly. I have another with the head of the division next week again at 6am (pre determined before this interview). It was also hard because the division’s core work is private enough that there was not much prep I could do beforehand. Tips?

Pretty sure the saga of the slave driven company has come to an end I’m the only HR person at this company. Friday I had full admin rights, and went to check email Saturday; account locked. Payroll/HRIS locked out. PEO service says no pending termination is on my file. Went to the office today to get my things just in case. Located in CA. Was about to report numerous violations too. All because I couldn’t solve 8 months of payroll issues in a day. 🫠 Good riddance, I’m getting a lawyer.
