I tried before and you need IT admin privileges to install. However, since it’s not in the EY AppStore, IT will ask that you have the provisioning dept order it for you. Provisions will tell you it’s freeware and nothing for them to purchase and redirect you to IT for the install.

It’s an endless loop and I gave up and installed on my personal machine.

Recently I got invited to an interview with a decent growing company. I work in Executive Search and I am thinking of switching to in-house recruiting.

Was I wrong to expect in-house recruiter to understand the differences and similarities between in-house-recruiting, professional search and retained executive search?

I started at a new firm this year in January. I had a billable goal that was given to me mid year of around 1750 house for the year. I am nowhere near that and definitely will not meet the goal. I had so many non billable hours I was forced to take when I first came in. I worked my ass off in busy season. At my previous firm I never fell short of hours as it was B4. This firm is mid sized and more focused on WLB. My question is how bad do you think this will affect my comp??
