Have to be completely honest with you, in these situations you have to remember the world doesn’t revolve around you. They have tons of other offers they are working on at the same time. I’m not being a jerk, I had to remind myself a few times when I was in the same boat.

Fair enough. I have an internal opportunity as well and I shared this with recruiter too. Since it’s internal, it’s more informal, no interviews needed but more like if I’m interested or not. Puts me in a pickle as I don’t want to lose this internal opportunity in case the approvals fall through (I read this happens more often than not at Big4).

like

It means it not really an offer- the verbal wouldn’t or shouldn’t have been made unless there was approval - in this market they should be turning it around in 24 hours or less if there is a real role - or their recruiting organization or processes are a mess

Took me sometime as well at EYP. They are hiring like crazy so it's been really slow.

Accenture has really slowed on hiring, EY could be doing the same

Could be. After my interviews (early April) was told even though I did well, approval was an issue and went into a holding pattern. Then they came back saying they are ready and would like to offer. Asked my salary prefs, assigned office etc.

Im a new hire at ey. The written offers are taking awhile across the board. They changed hr systems so its a mess rn

They changed systems a year ago - the legacy mgmt of recruiting ops is the issue just hapless in the most competitive market and the sr hr ops people who should know better let l them skate while it hurts talent acquisition

I am asked during this RE analyst interview to build a real estate model from scratch. My background is commercial banking and I am used to analyzing real estate deals from the lender side not the developer. The interviewer is generous I must say he’s giving me a few days to complete. However this model is for a ground up multifamily development. I have no prior experience building one. I can find models online but all very complexe to reproduce. How would you handle? Do you have model to share?

I recently accepted a job that I quite overqualified for because I’m in need of a job. I got hired as a Marketing Manager and work directly with the Marketing Director. Come to find out my director is still in school and has absolutely no marketing experience. She’s been with the company for 4 months. They seem to want to utilize my complete skills set and make up for her lack of marketing knowledge but maintain her position as director and pay me a entry level marketing manager salary. Advice?

Every other school that I know of in my state is either choosing remote learning to start the year or a hybrid approach, yet that was not an option for us. Are other Catholic schools I. The same boat? Stay safe!
