Hi everyone! I’m a young CPA, relocating to Raleigh. I made the decision to transition into sales after realizing that I want to bring more fun into my career. I’m currently reading sales books, watching Keenan’s YouTube channel, and learning all I can. I’m relentlessly applying for SDR positions but I’m having trouble landing interviews (been applying through LinkedIn). I would appreciate advice from anyone who transitioned from another industry into sales. How did you break the barrier?

Applying to a technical accounting position and the Company is asking for a writing sample. They have two options I could either write on a case scenario that they provide me or I can provide a writing sample from something that I have written before. I have a memo talking about a 606 cut off considerations it’s not very technical but I think it would address the request do you guys think this would be enough or should I just do the writing case scenario?

I have an interview for social media strategist with a rising DTC startup in NYC. I’m feeling imposter syndrome, since I’ve never marketed such a big, hip company. What books can I read or courses can I take to come into the interview solid and prepared? Most of my marketing theory is based on Seth Godin books and reading psychology.

What’s more anxiety inducing. Waiting to hear if your passed your final interview for a job or waiting to hear if your offer on a home was accepted?

Good morning 🐠!!!!! Waiting on (hopefully🤞🏼) an offer from a company that I had my final interview with on Friday. Please send all the good vibes!!

Hi Fishes. I am new to consulting (1YOE only). I am interviewing with multiple firms, looking out for best opportunity. I wanted to ask if I should tell the recruiters that I am interviewing with other firms as well or not? Was confused to tell or not. And if yes, should I tell them the companies as well if they ask?

What books would you recommend for someone wanting to get better at sales?

Responded to medical rfe. It was from SC, not a local FO. Does it mean they won’t probably ask me to do an interview locally?

Hey Consultants. I just might have a Bain interview coming up in a few weeks. So far I have had 3 R1s of the other two MBB but got dinged. I don’t know what I am doing wrong but I need help as I call this the “last dance” so far I have done 40+ live cases with MBB consultants.

I applied for JP Morgan and it still shows you are profile is considered for interview. It's been 15 days i haven't got a call or mail. What to do here? How can i reach out to HR?

Damn. Was lucky enough to land an interview. The interview went numerous rounds, it was super positive, so then I decided I would be 100% honest about something I wasn’t good at, in hopes of being clear that I was ready to grow. Then I got ghosted, and I think it’s because of the said honesty. Feeling low and stupid for ever admitting a “fault” in an interview instead of just telling them that I’m perfect.

Hi All, Last week interviewed by Cognizant, it went pretty well. Expecting a call back from them for next procedures. Usually how long it takes for them to call back ? Anyone recently interviewed or grab an offer ? Need inputs..

How would you compare a Client Partner role to a regular Partner role? It seems there is a lot of overlap, but I typically only see CP at smaller companies that aren’t true partnerships.

EY on friday: from now on, Skype will no longer log in automatically. Use teams. Monday: partner does a f/u meeting on Skype.

Looking for Berkeley Law students interested in a paid internship.

Does anyone else feel like it’s a bit slow at their firm right now or is it just mine? Apparently lots of people on the bench here...

Generalist/Project Manager with 5 YOE looking to exit to industry. If I have to do another pure play project manager role I’ll lose my mind. What’s the trick to getting a strategy & ops role in a T1 tech firm?

Are there any companies that are remote worldwide? I really want to travel internationally without having to come back every week or so

How many client billable hours (excluding probono etc) are you supposed to be billing per month not to be fired? I range anywhere from 130 to 200 hours depending on the month.

Do any of my other litigators who are thinking about a case on a Saturday night go back and read your briefs submitted on your case to feel better?

Rent is month to month - thinking about cutting lease and staying at my parents’ house (it’s completely vacant) on the opposite coast. Think remote work will last long enough for this to make sense?

This may be just a naive/dumb question, but how do you relax when you’ve got a really stressful file? I’m a junior and I’ve been putting in ~10ish billable hours a day recently, which is more than I’m used to. The evenings (post-8pm) are generally my time to decompress - read a book, watch dumb tv, whatever - but it’s been all work lately until 10 or 11pm and I struggle to go straight from work to bed. Any insight on what everyone else does?

Interested in the Drug and Medical Device area. Would anyone be able to share some insight into how to break into the area, how you or others like it, and which firms tend to excel in it?

Hi everyone, Deloitte immigration office paused all the Green card application, any thoughts on this? Is there possible we can file by own lawyer and only request Deloitte submit material? Overall, I’m 2nd year h1b, want to start the process ASAP.

Internally transferred into FDD as an audit senior 3. My coach and partner have indicated that I’m still eligible for promotion to manager based on years of experience. I’m trying to gauge the actual likelihood of this happening. Obviously firms bring in audit managers at the manager level with no FDD experience but would love to know if it’s possible/likely to be promoted to manager with less than a year of experience. I’d advise anyone in audit to transfer sooner rather than later!

Hi everyone, does anyone have any advice for someone who has been in the agency project management /production space for a couple years now but may be looking to transition into a more in-house brand management / client side role? (I think it’s time for me to be the boss now! Tired of the agency burn out)

Any thoughts on Morning Brew as a workplace? Love their newsletter and podcasts. I am super keen about the space but I'm not sure if it's worth the pay cut from Manager level in MBB
