Has anyone ever tried to work outside of AFS's typical locations (DC, SAT, STL)? I'd like to stay with AFS, but I want to move away from TX to CO. I've heard rumors that some people have been able to do this. Any experience or insight?

I know this is 7 months old now, but wanted to give feedback in case anyone else comes searching for the same information. I haven't done it myself, but I've worked closely with people who have lived in Boston, Denver, San Diego, Chicago, and Cincinnati so it can definitely be done.

I have heard, however, that when you make this change, AFS does not pay extra to adjust for a higher cost of living. At the same time, they may evaluate you for promotions against people in DC instead of whatever city you were in before (if you were in SA or STL).

The more I learn about the promotion process, the less I understand the second part. Not once have my Managers or mentors said promotions are based on location. But someone I knew on a previous project said that when he moved from San Antonio to Chicago, it meant promotions got harder for him because he was being ranked against a larger pool of people (DC).

Something worth asking about if/when you take steps towards this change.

There are a lot of remote AFS employees in our project

Our project has been fully remote for last 4-5 years, even before Covid. Last month mid year we have two promotions to L8, one L7, and one L6, and a lot of other promotions at a lower levels. So it depends on the project.

I left Audit at a midsize firm to join KPMG erp implementation consulting about 6 months ago. So far they seem to only want to staff me on projects with a heavy focus on technical accounting and audit. Spoke to a lot of others who have left and seems like being pigeonholed or staffed on projects not related to the actual core work of the practice is the common reason. I've been on the fence about whether I should stay and hope to be staffed on better projects in the future or leave soon...

Hello,
Any HR from Accenture who can consider my profile for Qliksense developer (6years experience). I have been trying for this company for more than 2 years now but not even a single interview was scheduled. Worse part is if the profile is already in the system, it doesnot consider it for other jobs. I can see a lot of postings in job site but cannot apply in those.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks
