Hi Fishes,
Got an offer from Deloitte (Human Capital) for SCon position in Melbourne. Being an international, I wanted your guidance on few things -
1. Is 105k (including super) annual, a good amount to live comfortably?
2. What could be the expected time period from offer acceptance to landing in Australia (medical, visa processing, etc.)
3. For single person, what are the average expenses (nothing fancy)?
TIA.

Hi! Ex-Deloitte Human Capital mgr here!
1. You should be able to negotiate up to 115k I reckon for SCon. 105k including super is not great.
2. Depends on your current location. Wait times for medical vary by location.
3. There are various cost of living calculators online, reasonably accurate. Would recommend having a look there.

Thanks a lot BCG1 for your message.
1. Sure, I can send that request to the hiring manager. Since I don't have any other offer in hand, I should build my negotiation narrative on cost of living reason?
2. Got it. I can look for hospitals that are accredited and check their lines. Background police verification and medium of instruction certificate (English) might take some time but Embassy visa processing time period is listed on AU Immi website.
3. Will do. But people working in CBD stay near to offices or rely on rail/cars in Melbourne?

Hi @deloitte, congratulations on the offer. What do you reckon are the main skills that recruiters look for in the “human capital consulting”? Any tips?

It's a very broad term but focus entirely on HR function of any firm. Within HC, we have vertical that deal with Org Transformation, change management, Actuarial work (benefits/insurance optimization) and a big team that work on the underlying technologies - HRIS (SAP, Workday, Kronos, Oracle, etc) and other ancillary technologies.

I am into SAP SuccessFactors consulting and can answer any question related to that. Rest would be little tricky.

General rule, it wouldn't pay as much as Deloitte's Strategy & Operations division but it's still good amount and hours are not punishing.

1. I know some analysts making 105k including super... maybe they're overpaid, rockstars, have in-demand skills, or some combo of those, but surely you can ask to bump that a bit higher. 115k maybe?
2. Visa processing times would depend, but the onboarding team might be able to tell you.
3. As said, use calculators. Also go to real estate websites like Domain and look at places that might suit you (usually, multiply weekly rents by 4.333 to get monthly), then maybe triple that for total expenses (noting that you'll be making ~$6000/month after tax). That should give you a rough estimate.

Haha I was going to say 105 is the upper end of the SC band.

Thanks MD1 🙌🏻🥂

Hi all, I recently purchased a commercial property at WTC, Noida. As I look to grow my portfolio, I spoke to my consultant to see if I could get better prices. He worked with the sales folks at WTC and said that if multiple buyers come in, he could work out a deal. Wanted to check if anyone is interested? I could potentially get him to set up one-on-ones to help explain the commercial real estate market. Even if this property doesn’t seem interesting, I think an interaction wouldn’t hurt.. contd
