For the D&AI Value Strategy Managers (or Industry & Functional AI Value Strategy Managers, if you’ve gotten accustom to the new title): what sort of work do you have the most success getting staffed on? I’ve seen a lot of roles on MyS for RAI, modelers, DS, and SAP work but not a lot strategy work. I like strategy, op models, running pods, and a lot of the other typical work, but feeling like there aren’t a lot of options unless I learn a tech/app well or get some sort of DS/DE credentials.

I’ll let you in on a little secret about Accenture no one will tell you.

Your title, practice, or MU has nothing to do with what you’ll actually do. You do what you can do / will do / or network to do.

I’ve seen a lot of those roles go to industry strategy or functional strategy. Thinking being that they know those businesses or functions best. Most of those are staffed before they ever hit MyS.

I am a 3rd year senior associate in alternative investment tax and up for manager promotion this year. I really dislike the long hours of this job and seeking to make a move.

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?
