Recruiter screenings are typically talking through your background and experience. You may have a couple of behavioral questions and they will likely ask your salary and role expectations. If you make it through the screen then you will interview with relevant consultants based on your areas of experience and our hiring needs.

I wouldn’t sweat it. They’re generally talking through your resume, confirming expectations related to travel, salary. They’re not trying to stump you.

I had my interview and I think I did indeed tank it. I was nervous the whole time. 🤦🏽‍♂️

I started a new job as an “office manager” at the end of January. The duties seem to align more with those of an EA, and I’m ok with that. Except my boss is a control freak. He scolds me over every little thing, how I load the dishwasher, maybe I didn’t push my chair in. Last week he told me I needed to work on my appearance. I was shocked. I bought all new clothes from Ann Taylor that are perfectly acceptable for business casual. He hates me. Move on ASAP or try to stick it out ?

One of the reasons I want to transition from industry to consulting (tier 1) is that I get frustrated when I have to collaborate with mediocre people. My assumption is that Tier 1 consulting firms hire really sharp people and if I can get in, I’ll be collaborating with folks on top of their game (not expecting much from clients). I’m aware there are personal aspects I need to work on like my mindset, patience etc etc, but I just get so frustrated with blatant stupidity.

I’ve only been at my current company for about 8 months, but I don’t ever see myself loving this job. How do I know when it’s time to make a change?
