How do you tell a recruiter that you are no longer interested in interviewing for a position without burning bridges? I spoke with HR and then the direct manager and realized it may not be a good fit for me. What do I say?

Be honest! If it’s not a right fit now, doesn’t mean you’ll never want to work there. Diplomatically share the reasons why, and say you’d like to keep the door open for future opportunities that better fit. It’s better than wasting your time (and theirs).

So to everyone staying in the newly rebranded DAT, I'm curious what you think our long-term exit ops will looks like. Under RA it was possible to leverage some work in ICRS or non-audit clients as "consulting work" but we're basically losing that bridge as far as I understand. I'd like to still think there's opportunities outside of just IT Audit waiting for me but have my doubts.
