1/2 of one, but they gotta be hiring. If they’re not hiring then intern somewhere where they will appreciate your “mad skills"

One place. Extended for a second 9 week session and then hired after that.

One internship the summer after junior year, one after senior year. Moved cities, job hunted for 6 months, got a junior role at a social shop

Do you guys like where you ended up? No regrets about settling or anything ?

I didn’t like the shop where I ended up, so I moved to another.

Three internships around the world through MAS, hired by a fourth shop.

Hi everyone!

This isn’t really an interview question but more of an on-boarding question.
Bit of background- I left my job of 3 years in Dec 2021 for a new company. Initially, I thought the company was great but my mind quickly changed. The on-boarding process was horrible, minimal training, thrown onto enterprise project 2 weeks in, over time, and there is no process for anything. I ended up hating my job.

Fast forward to Mid March, I started applying for jobs again but I omitted this role.

Landed a contract role at Deloitte via MBO Partners for an audit senior role. MBO is making me a W-2 employee for MBO, but I am getting paid $125/hour plus overtime. Am I missing something here or am I about to be making $5K/week (or more with OT)? Anyone have any experience with MBO or doing contract work like this? Obviously way more than I'd make if I stayed at KPMG for busy season.
