Hii, anyone going to the ALPFA? Convention this year? Or went to it last year? Tips?

I have no talent for awards work. What should I do?

For those who have left PwC recently - how long did it take to receive information in the mail regarding your 401(k) and details on how to transfer? I’m starting in advisory at another Big 4 next week and am unsure on how I will report this in the onboarding process for independence related docs.

Can anyone share their experience for "Wealth Management Americas(WMA) Investment Products IT Change the Bank(CTB) team"? How are projects I mean newer or legacy technology, WLB, team's culture?

Good to see we have a group as, Muslims in Accounting.

Here in Brooklyn, the bishop closed all of the meetings in Catholic Churches. Not sure if that includes the rest of NY? Anyway, some groups have set Zoom meetings, a friend is hosting a small BB study

Any one here from magneti marelli account?

Hi Fishes,

I got interviewed at infosys two days back.
When can I expect to hear back from them.
Also all the questions that were asked to me were written coding questions(Write block of code) none were verbal.I could write all answers but none was 100% correct.

At last I asked the interviewer about feedback as in where was I wrong. He said at couple of places and he explained me where was I wrong.

Do you all think I will be rejected?

My area has a shortage of vet techs, yet all three clinics I’ve interviewed with are only offering minimum wage. I’d rather not commute to the next city if I don’t need to. Should I try to sell the ROI of hiring me at a liveable wage?

What has been more beneficial to your career and why: specializing in a service offering or an industry?

Republicans: We just haven’t seen enough evidence to support impeaching Trump

Also Republicans: Fight subpoenas that would force Bolton, Mulvaney, Pompeo, Perry, Pence, etc. to testify

I need a referral. Can someone please help? 🙂

Account supervisors, what are you making? Trying to assess what is standard and earning potential in this role

I work in a sucky IBM cic, making $54k. It’s a full time job with regular benefits and vacation etc, it’s working with government clients. The job isn’t what I applied for & constantly changes. I don’t like that, but I’m a full time employee which is “stable employment”. Btw, I’m in the DC area.

I just got hired for a government contract through Accenture for a Business Analyst role. Pay is $65 per hour. 3 year contract. Benefits too. No PTO. Holidays off with pay, after 90 days.

Thoughts?

I have significant equity in a property (300k+) and maybe another 200k across other properties. I have a decent amount of money in cash and already 200k or so in stocks. Would you consider pulling money through cash out refi and using it? I get nervous for stocks being so high. I have a few properties in pipeline already. How would you suggest using it (if at all).

How do you answer this question “What race are you?” Seems simple but as someone of Latin American geographic decent it seems more complex than Asian, black, native America, or White. No brown box !

Is anyone here actively involved in ALPFA and if so, would you recommend it? What have you been able to accomplish through your membership/participantion. Ultimately, I just get the sense that its for college students to network and try landing their first job.

The word "Latinx"

Discuss.

Hola! Ya se terminó el busy season. Como les fue?

We still can’t score 50+ after an invite? Dang...

Wow so dead! I guess we really are the minority 😕

Anyone else here from a shithole country? I’m proudly Dominican 🇩🇴 😁

How’s attending the ALPFA conference in Vegas?

anyone here a conservative and a member of a political organization/non-profit in the NYC area? Want to be active but it’s hard to find latinos who affiliate with the republican party. Don’t come @ me

Any news from anyone, especially during covid?

Would it be frowned upon or make anyone feel comfortable if I as a Black male join ALPFA? I want to get true genuine opinions as I don't want to offend anyone/culture

Latino now working on PwC NYM... Is there anyone else from South American countries in this office ? I mean like secondments or transfers. Not mandarory to be a South American either... Just curious.

Anyone else have their parents and tias try to set you up with everyone?

I would think Miami, LA, Chicago, NYC. Anyone attend the ALPFA convention?

Out of curiosity...is ALPFA 🇪🇸 friendly? I know back in the day, but curious how it was now. I want to encourage everyone to get into accounting. Thanks!

I’m looking for a Spanish speaking auditor for a Fortune 500 company. Awesome international travel if anyone is interested.... TIA!
