Graduating from my MBA program in May and I start working in consulting around October. Does anyone know of any firms that would be willing to hire part time? Unfortunately pretty cash strapped after not working for 2 years

My opinion:
(1) See if you can get EI for that period

(2) Look for a labor or another fun job (assuming it can cover survival costs). This is the last time that you will be able to do this type of work.
-Consider state or national park service
-Working concessions at your local baseball (whether MLB or lower)
-There’s may others depending on where you are in the country.

(3) See if you can bring your start date up if you are truly cash strapped

(4) If you are committed to this part time consulting from May to Oct. Check your contract to see if you are already bound by a non-compete and then check with your full-times HR if they are okay with you doing this work (you may get caught up in your part time gigs T&Cs like non-solicit).

It's been a challenging year for me, including a rejection from GSAP. This week, I got into my top choice MBA program - and an M7 to boot! Just goes to show that sometimes Deloitte's decisions can be misaligned to the greater world.
I hope that Deloitte gives me the chance to be a good brand ambassador - but at the point, it's up to the firm if I even consider coming back :)

Currently, in accenture. I have had very bad billable hours and not much achievement this fiscal year. I am worried of getting fired, so i applied for another job. Got offered may be 5% above my current pay with 5k bonus, but in lower level at Deloitte. I think working lower level will give me more opportunities to learn as i think i have lot to learn. I made decision based on my gut and accepted the offer. I have not talked to anyone on accenture side yet. What you think?
