The recruiters at European firms will call your references abroad. I moved here from the US and both my consulting (tier 1) employers called my employers and universities in the US for verification.

Thanks for sharing, if I may ask how you came to know about whether they called your employers, is it like you provided your manager numbers an when they approach the office ex colleague informed you?

Most European firms will hire external background check agencies who will ask for references and verify those references. I was told by ‘y references that they were called and asked to verify the duration I worked for them as well as other details. :)

Thank you for confirming my doubts 😂 hope it goes well

I recently joined Swiss Re at 30lpa, pretty good manager and work culture. Got a hike of 10% in 3 months without me asking for it. But got an offer from another company which I was interviewing for before joining here and they are offering a base of 45lpa. Now I am unsure how I convey this to my manager coz I want to stay here but at the same time I am salivating over this new offer and wish I get similar numbers here. Is it worth raising a discussion? If yes what would be a subtle way to do so?

I'm currently in a process for senior associate at a Big4. The process began on July, yet between the first and second interview it took like 3-4 weeks. And between the 2nd and 3rd like 7 weeks. I sent an email to HR during those weeks asking for an update and didn't have an answer. Then it a 3rd one was scheduled three times (the manager didn't connect to the first 2) and next week I have the last interview with 1 partner. Is the timing normal? Or were they looking for other candidates or what?

Anyone from Deloitte here?
