Hi friends,
I have an informational interview with a senior person at a PE fund tomorrow (fellow alum). Currently prepping and coming up with questions to ask him about the industry/fund. Without giving too much away it’s a MM fund that is consultant friendly and does a lot of add-ons. Would welcome any smart questions to add to my list. Thanks!!

What can I expect from EY’s case interview? Senior consultant position for Business Transformation. TIA

Interviewed for a GS-15 (same agency but different office) and totally aced the interview with excellent answers. They know I’m a top performer with senior references. However I noticed there was an internal candidate who has been there for few years and interviewed that’s a veteran. I feel my chances just sank and want to gauge thoughts.

Hey everyone! This is my first time posting but I thought I’d try to ask, I received a request from a recruiter to interview for a new insurance company I’ve never heard of: Branch. Looked it up and it seems to be a new “Techsurance” company working with both home and auto policies. Does anyone have any information they could share about this company? Thank you!

Hi, any inputs for how the interview case study round for a solutioning domain @fractal.ai is?

I was hired on with a company at the same time as my male coworker. We work the exact position, different projects.
I asked him flat out what his salary was when he hired on. His salary is at minimum 15% more. He’s never had a raise.
Neither one of us had any experience in this specific position but he didn’t even have experience in the field, which I did.
I requested a performance and salary review because it’s my annual review time anyway. Best way to address this? Also applying elsewhere.
