I went through the interviews about a month ago and just accepted the offer. I assume you’re in audit now? If so, be prepared to talk about any technical accounting research/writing you’ve done or any standards implementation (e.g. 606) that your client has recently gone through. It’s mostly a fit interview and a gauge for your interest in technical work.

Come to EY FAAS instead

@EY2 Actually talked to an EY recruiter but was told they don’t need more seniors in NYC, at least FSO. Which office are you in? Do you guys need more seniors?

I’m in FAAS, we need people in most offices. Are you looking to relocate?

EY3 no I am gonna stay in NYC, but am also willing to relocate to San Jose. HR told me there is no opening for FSO senior but she is only focusing on my industry.

Charge 40 hours still but only put 5 hours non-charge for utilization to be 89% instead of 80%? Or am I misunderstanding how utilization works?
