EY’s talent/recruiters are a train wreck. Such a negative experience. Interviewing in PAS makes the crappy talent experience even more ironic

Deloitte OP. Sorry to hear I went through the same thing but the culture really is great. The recruiters are not unfortunately. Please let me know what I can do drop a burner or something. I am an SM in PAS and would gladly take this up the chain as an example of where we need to do better. #notatroll

Haha I just went through it and had the same experience! Random emails, no replies, and abrupt calls.

Best experience I’ve had has been with 2 firms: BCG and KPMG. Rockstar HR teams

I’m thinking about giving a thanks but no thanks just bc of this. I’m not even sure that their human capital consulting is even strong. I’m not unhappy enough to take this risk.

They are very change management focused whereas the other B4 have broader and deeper expertise in other HC functions. I suggest taking a look at either a boutique firm or other B4

went through interview in the DD&A group earlier this year and had a real solid experience. Unfortunately it must very drastically group to group. Definitely take up EY1 on sharing a burner.

Had an excellent recruiting experience straight from college. Are you an experienced hire?

my campus recruiting experience 3 years ago was stellar with EY. but i heard horror stories about exp. hired. sorry OP :(

Any interview tips for Project Manager roles in software development? I was moved to this role about 2 years ago and soon looking to jump to another company, but unsure of what to focus on talking about. I’ve tested the waters and the feedback from one interviewer who was generous enough to provide it was that I made myself sound like a technologist rather than a PM because I was too focused on the product and it’s details instead of the project management details.

Hi Guys,

I have completed my tech interview rounds with UBS and have received email for fitment round.

Can anyone share what happens in this fitment round on interview?

Thank you.

Moving on from Hotels (Hospitality)?

I’ve been thinking about this for awhile now, but it is very to commit to actually accept a new job offer since I really do love my job. My only complaint is, the pay vs workload is very small. I’m a manager now and my property offered me a director position… but the salary is still low! To make six figures, it’ll take another 5-6 years to grind it out.

Should I move on and go to a different industry? Opinions are welcome! Thanks in advance.
