Prob slightly. Perhaps better for non technical recruiting while you’re at your mba. That being said, if you’re doing tech at either, then it doesn’t matter

I don’t think there’s a huge difference. What you can say you’ve done at the firms is more important. I think the onus for the non-top tier firm applicants is proving you’re in their top cohort. So the answer to your question is it depends.

Hit the nail here. If it’s not the top 3, then it’s on you, not your company, to prove you’re a top performer and that’s done through your work experience and stories

Hi Fishes,

l interviewed for Deloitte (India not USI) in January, and accepted an offer letter with DOJ of 25th April, later HR asked me to join on 11th April for which I agreed. Now I haven't received the revised offer letter or any links other than BGV and Pre-Hire form from Deloitte and now the HR is not even picking my calls or responding to emails.

Any advice on what to do?
