It's less about secret groups and more about whatever projects your leadership team and their favorites happen to be most involved in. Try to get on those.

Yep, some cause you never knew existed and rewrote because the team on it had no idea about stats.

Demonstrate that you are thinking what else you can do to solve a brief, not just doing what the client or account team expects.

Or just raise your hand.

The one thing is this projects are often on your own time because they may or may not be for actual briefs.

Hello Guys,

CCTC -7.34
EY IN offered - 13.61(2lakh VP)

I have accepted EY IN Offer.
Now I am getting calls from EY GDS for interviews.

I am not sure if u should attend the interview or not at GDS.
When I shared this scenario with my EY IN HR, she said please don't attend it may create conflict and you may also get blacklisted.

EY GDS HR is like, you can attend the interview, there's no problem at all. We don't have such a policy. Please suggest what decision I should make.

Do you all see a compelling future in your tax career? I’ll go first, I don’t see a compelling future working for a large PA firm in the long run because you have to work more as you move up. However, I do see a compelling future by using my knowledge and skills to open my own firm/business and work less hours as long as I make enough money which is $75k, or if I do work long hours, it’s because I want to.
