Not in this practice but -

General advice: Be ready to speak to your experience and focus on outcomes. Have thoughtful questions ready (not your basic/generic questions found on google)

Additionally, people want to see if you’re someone they want to work with. We’re all humans at the end of the day so don’t be afraid to share a little about yourself and what makes you, you. I always try to work in different topics during interviews that typically have some kind of connection for people. It helps to ease the conversation when you both discover you have similar interests or experiences, etc.

Thank you this is very helpful!

How do you think it went? I loved my KPMG interviews although I went with EY. They were my favorite people but didn’t give the title I wanted.

Sorry it’s been a while but nothing I was surprised about. Your typical behavioral interview questions! Work in a team. Challenging project. Leadership experience.

I thought I was compensated fairly, but would love to see your thoughts.

Cross-posting: Im trying to flip a new build - long story, but have had certain circumstances come up and can't keep the home - but I'm now competing with the builder because they have homes still being built in the neighborhood (there is nothing against me selling it). They have started offering added incentives and low balling due to market conditions. What do I have and what can I do to sell mine? Or should I give up and just rent it out and wait? Any advice appreciated.

Hi Fishes,
Need some positive suggestions.

I'm a data analyst(SQL, Python, ETL, Viz) with 6.5yrs exp at LTI(1 Month exp).
I left PWC AC after 6 months of joining because of the nature of dabba work I was getting(80% testing/documentation, 20% technical). Worked for 12+ hrs everyday and wanted to have some wlb.

Now in LTI, life is too peaceful and there's no technical work in current project. I'm getting thoughts like I'm wasting my skills by taking less tech projects at this stage of career.

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.
