Hi Fishes! Needed your help. This is my first job. I have an offer from a startup (very well known) and I'm in the process of interviewing for a Big 4 org. I'm in a dilemma because the startup wants me to join on 31st oct while the big4's 3rd round will be held on 1st nov. I prefer joining the big4 org more. A little helpless situation because of the diwali holidays. Can I delay the offer for a week more? I had mentioned to them that I'm a immediate joiner also. Please help.

Rounds are pending means it is going to take 10 day to 15 days to release offer. Plus there is no surity of geeting the rounds cleared.

I suggest you to join and in parallel give interview as well.

If everything goes well happily move to Big4 as in initial time Notice period will be 7 days or 1 months mostly

Hey everyone - I could do with some advice. Not sure what I am doing wrong, but I am having a hard time getting interview calls. I am trying to pivot from consulting to the industry and targeting project/program management roles. I have been doing this work for 7+ years now (total YOE 12 years) so certainly have the right skillset. I have tried a couple of referrals too but that didn’t help either. Any advice you guys could provide would be helpful. Thanks!
