Has anyone had experience or know someone that was an FBI special agent for accounting/finance? I am really drawn to this but I am concerned about the 50 hour minimum weeks, including odd hours and having to be on call 24/7.

One of my classmates in grad school about 10 yrs ago was a fraud accountant with the FBI. I don’t recall long weeks standing out but 50 hr weeks is on the short side for an accountant. Being on call also didn’t come up. He had a pretty mundane job.

I went to a NABA meeting where the FBI presented. There’s a difference between the forensic accountants and the special agents. If you reach out to your local FBI field office recruiter, I’m sure they’d be glad to give you more info about what’s involved.

I just returned to bangalore last week via train. There I met one guy who was shifting to bangalore for the first time due to his job(Infosys). We talked for sometime. There he asked if its okay to keep his luggage for some time if situation arises as such. I thought the guy is new so I agreed to it and gave him his number.
Now after a week he calls me and says he wants to live at my apartment as his 14 day accomodation is getting over. I am a bit uncomfortable for this as he is a stranger.

Hey everyone, I need some advise. I've been interviewing for a company for the last 4weeks. The salary was originally discussed as (say Xk) but the recruiter I'm working with said today that they "realigned the goals" and brought the salary down to (Xk-10). I wasn't even okaay with Xk tbh, and now they've gone ahead and reduced it by 10k! I'm attending the final round on Friday - do y'all have any tips on how I can negotiate my salary to X+10 and let them know that this is highly unprofessional?
