How may weeks would it take to go through the interview process/get an offer in hand at a competing Big 4 for an associate level role?

Recently went through the Deloitte process from recruiter contact to offer letter in 3 weeks.

It really depends on the firm’s motivation to fill a role and the business case. Could be as quick as a few weeks to as long as several months of frustrating waiting.

Got an offer at ZS for Consultant, and recruiter said it's the highest they can do for C. (165k plus COLA for NYC) and 15k signing.
My question is that this is the highest what kind of raises can one get, and how much target bonus is realistic at C level? 7YOE, M1 at Big 4.

Hi guys! I could use some help here, feeling a little discouraged. I started working for EY through a contractor and im hoping to move to EY to a different line that I could expand my current skillset. Although I don't hold a degree, I recently completed a certificate with Google in Project Management. I was hoping to move to something in Communications, EA or even Advisory but I haven't had any luck. and advice? Also looking into the EY Employee Referral scheme? or would that even be worth it?

I have a few interviews lined up, which is great, but I have terrible anxiety. As I’m preparing, I feel like I’m completely forgetting who I am and can’t answer simple questions like “Can you tell me about your career accomplishments?” I don’t have much career experience since I only graduated in 2021. Any advice?
