Guidehojse folks- recruiter reached out to me about an experienced associate position. Little bit confused how this fits in with the associate -> senior associate -> manager model.

Experienced Associate is functionally the lowest rank in Guidehouse. The only associates are college hires. You are most likely postponing promotion until at least Aug 2020 if you take the job.

This is a holdover from the PwC model. Their model is Associate>Exp. Associate >Senior Associate > Manager > Director > Partner or MD. Traditional track is 3 years to Senior. Other places like EY have 2 years to Senior and no intermediate rank.

How far would I be from making senior associate?

Had my 2nd interview with the hiring manager this past Friday & sent a thank you shortly after. It's now Tuesday (for those who see this on another day). At the end of the interview he said they've had other people who were interested but only one other person besides me were they considering. Said he would talk to his team and possibly have me fly out to meet in person. How long should I wait to follow up without seeming pushy? Also welcome any other tips to separate me from other candidate.

If not, how do I go about it?
