Fish who’ve switched firms- interviewing with BCG in two weeks, how much time did you spend practicing cases again?

Spoke to a b4 recruiter last Tuesday for a S1 position and discussed salary expectation and etc., but haven’t heard back on interview dates. Should I assume I wasn’t selected? Or does it usually take some time?

Currently applying to a government position for the army corps of engineering. Does anybody have experience working for the government?

Hello Community,

I am interviewing for a senior consultant role in Salesforce practice at a big4 firm. What should I expect as a compensation?

I'm completely burned out and looking at industry jobs. For people who left, do you recommend using a recruiter? They seem like a dime a dozen but I'm not sure if I'm missing out by doing it on my own

I am getting a little impatient with a recruiter who feels like she has been ghosting me. I need to make another decision with a company by tomorrow but have not heard back from this other company since I’ve interviewed last Monday. I updated her on my timeline and she hasn’t emailed me back. I have her number from when she initially called me. Would it be bad to just give her a call?

Hey all, looking to move to a different firm (small boutique to bigger firm) as a Business Analyst (3 YOE), any suggestions for places to apply to

Does anyone have any insight on what is entailed during an “expertise chat” at McK? I spoke to a recruiter and made it through to the next step. The next step is the expertise chat before progressing to the official first round interview. For reference, this is for their Healthcare Services & Technology practice. TIA

Good resource for resume writing? Haven’t had to update my resume since starting in audit years ago. Want to make sure I’m saying things the right way in a way that will be attractive to industry.

I recently had an interview with HCL and cleared 2 rounds of technical interview. I waited for a week for HR call but no such call was received. I then contacted the POC who scheduled the interview (he is an HCL employee) and he said that I have been shortlisted and will receive HR call shortly. This was 1 week ago and I have still not received any call. Has anyone else faced the same issue? And if yes, should I even expect a call fro HR?

I was talking with an Asian mentee who told me that he has experienced the following microagression during job interviews: "You speak English soooo well!" Any suggestions about how he can respond?

I have an interview for a Principal Renewals Manager role at Slack/Salesforce this Wednesday and I was hoping for some advice on how I can wow them? Ive done a lot of research and made loads of notes but get very nervous in interviews and dont always articulate how I would want to / say everything I want to cover. It also doesnt help that the job im in at the moment makes me absolutely miserable and im desperate to leave… help!

Got promoted after submitting my application for R2.

Emailed the schools and some have replied saying I should update my resume and send to them.

I'm a little at a loss of what to add to my resume. As most of you know in consulting we don't get a bunch of new responsibilities the second we get promoted to the next level (at least before getting promoted to M).

I'm thinking I will add a section for Senior Consultant and add what my responsibilities reasonably would be in 3-6 months (cont)

Has anyone currently in FAANG (or similar large tech companies) moving from a transaction (preferably find formation) background in Big Law? Would love to hear how you switch the gear, how you revise your resume to suit for tech! TIA!!

I received an offer from IBM Bangalore. However I saw openings at my preferred location Kochi only after the interviews. I called the HR after getting their point of contact mail and I asked if it's possible to switch. They said I'm already tagged to a project and that they'll check from their end if it can be done.

Anyone knows the chances of location being changed after receiving the offer and getting tagged to a project?

I have not yet accepted the offer.

Do we have to go to office from next week?

This isn’t a ghosted story, but I think you guys might appreciate. Couple of months ago, I got a rejection letter for a position I never applied to. Like, I wasn’t even in the market for a new job...

I’m all for building people up, celebrating successes, and more positivity in this industry, but at the same time, i really wish there was a “mute award show posts” button on LinkedIn.

My browser history is failing me and hope y’all can help! I recently stumbled upon a website where some ad folks had compiled a bunch of idea/conceptual thinking approaches and if you clicked through there were past spots that had utilized that idea / way of thinking. I wanted to share it with a mentee and can’t track it down. It was a simple layout: grid of images w/headline naming the idea … Sound familiar?

Is it standard to get a non-compete of 6months after termination in an offer by a growth equity firm? It is an associate level offer.

Can anyone recommend a white label chat tool that I can embed in my application? All the people that would be using the application would have the ability to do targeted communication to others. We'd need to basically present a button and when clicked 2 people can then talk to each other directly. You can think of it like a buyer and seller communication feature on a marketplace but real time.

Senior Manager is definitively the worst job at the firm. Not all the time, but most of the time. (And yes, I "speak up for my needs". Response is "cry me a river don't care") Do other SMs feel this?

Started my morning with the worst spin class I've ever had. Passive aggressive move to leave before it ended to not have to talk to the instructor. It was a cringe worthy class.

Am looking at exit opportunities and researching FAANG. Curious to understand why anyone would join Amazon which has the worst benefit of the FAANG? Can anyone share what’s better at Amazon that I am not aware of? Amazon and Facebook on sites lined up in January! So researching now!;)
