I am currently in industry, but was a Senior in Accounting Advisory, and before that an audit associate. I’m thinking of trying DDV at PwC as I’ve always been interested in M&A integration, but am unsure on carry over of skills and also would like to go somewhere I can be bumped to Manager as I was almost there prior to leaving industry. I know they are on a hiring spree so would coming in as a Manager be possible? I’ve previously been on M&A audit/AAS engagements.

It is possible but not guaranteed. You are better off start out as a senior anyways. If you really want the title make sure you leverage your experience and negotiate prior to accepting the offer. Hmu for EY referral (the pay is better than Pdubs)

Thank you for the response. Is the group at EY part of EY Parthenon? Also, curious to hear more on why you recommend starting as a senior vs Manager, are there technical aspects of the job we might not know coming from the outside?
