Depends on the practice and group. It’s definitely possible to live elsewhere in Strategy

I mean it depends on if u have to go into the office on Fridays or not lol idk how they’d find out just be careful with “local” projects.

Home office is local. Primarily drives mileage and tax considerations. Policy is that you are reimbursed beyond your commute cost to the office. It pushes the imagination and credulity, but I think if your commute to the home office (say LA to CHI was your regular commute, anything under that cost would be out of pocket). Unless you are working tax things, HR will set your home office as the closest large or small office to your home addy.

Internal or client facing role? If external- Advisory, Tax, or Audit? Advisory service groups are often national, meaning you go where the client needs you- home office isn’t really critical. Audit- i think they mostly local to their clients. Tax I think is both ends. Internal may be specific to location, but I think they may be flexible on home office. Fly to the client during the week, maybe you do Friday in your home office, maybe not. I was talking to someone recently who has been to his home office 4 times over a year- mostly for IT support.

Ok, i have my follow up call tomorrow just want to be sure what to expect. Since that city is expensive to live i wanna see my options

That’s smart of you! I probably wouldn’t explicitly tell them because their expectation is that you will live there, but those are just things to be aware of. :) feel free to DM if you have any more questions. Good luck!

Oh ok so currently i live in Columbia SC, the position i applied for is in Irvine but the closest office to me is Charlotte or Greenville. How would that work?

I really need advice. I’ve been in my current role for a couple years and I’m just so defeated. I am good at my job. I work so hard and I’m so undervalued and unappreciated. My work is scrutinized to a degree that no one else experiences (I could give concrete examples of other people delivering design work that haven’t met BASIC design principles and it’s gotten approved) compared to me where I frequently get feedback that somehow makes my work worse but I just comply because it’s not (1/2)

After spending 4 years as a mid-level ops manager, I tried to break into HR through talent acquisition. Now after 6 years in TA, I've had a hard time getting out of it. My goal was always to get into a more broad HRBP position, but I've since worked for smaller orgs without a solid HR career path. When I ask about my career goals, they keep telling me, "Soon!" Or "Maybe in 6 months!"

I'm testing SPHR in June. Any advice for securing the type of role I'm aiming for?

My husband just received a job offer on an opportunity he is really excited about. It would be great for his career and they are giving the 15% jump in base he asked for, however they won’t share what the target bonus amount would be. It’s an executive director position, so I would assume it’s a decent target bonus, but without that in writing it could honestly be a gift basket at the end of the year. Is it a red flag for them to not share this? His total comp could be less at this new job…

Had my virtual on-site for an S&O L3 role 3.5 weeks ago (NYC, 5 YOE). I haven’t heard back on a decision yet, and was wondering how long it typically takes? I also know that I was one of the very first candidates to interview for this specific role, and there are atleast 2 more people scheduled for onsites. Does the recruiter typically wait for all candidates to finish their onsites before communicating a decision? Or if I haven’t heard back yet, it’s probably a reject?
