Quitting in March to travel!

Only hesitation is because of giving up the $$$ I would get working

I quit 1.5 months before starting school and traveled. There were people who quit way earlier and those who quit right before school. If you can afford to do so, definitely take at least a month off. Have fun!!

Hi Deloitte London 🐠. I’m a Manager in the Toronto office. A good friend is doing his MBA in ESADE and really wants to end up in consulting in London.

Anyone from D London who would be open to connecting with him to chat and help him understand the firm and the local office? My London network is surprisingly small.
