How do I time interviews so that I get multiple offers at the same time so that I can leverage them against each other? I also want to avoid a situation where I get an offer from my backup option but it explodes before I can secure an offer with my top option.

Too many variables to get an exact answer. I’m currently in this situation, I delayed as much as possible with my backup and their process was much faster. Received an offer the next day from interviews and was given 5 days to respond to the offer. My first choice, it’s been over a month since the interviews and the recruiter said that an offer was coming in about 3 weeks ago. Looks like I’m starting at my backup next week 🤷🏽‍♂️

In the same boat. I try to delay scheduling interviews with the company that’s slightly ahead in timeline. It’s working so far.

EY recruiting is such a mess. Applied and did a pre-recorded video interview, heard nothing for like 3 weeks.

Call back the number and it goes to voicemail. The following week I get a rejection email. Just so frustrating EY

Hi all, I’m in need of some career advice. Not sure where to direct my attention. I know that I don’t enjoy consulting, but I’m also fairly confident that I don’t like strategy.

I also enjoy working with others frequently and finding a solution together, instead of having individual workstreams. I can hold my own in front of a crowd as long as I’m confident in...
