I am interested in applying for a strategy role at Google. Is getting a referral worth it or should I just apply directly on the website ? Haven’t done recruiting since graduating college back in India.

Def worth getting a referral. With a referral, you should hear from the recruiter within a week, positive response or otherwise.

referral
helps. But you can apply without one. They reach out definitely but it may take some time.

Hey all! I have an interview with
Deloitte in Regulatory Risk and more precisely in their Investment Management Services team. I would like to know if anyone
knows what the job entails exactly. I keep hearing about people "fooled" into taking a job in risk advisory thinking it'll really be advisory while they only end up doing IT and Audit support (which I do not want to do).
Is it the case here?
Thanks!

Is it more worth it to go into FDD at a regional firm now, or hope that my current big 4 will transfer me come spring 2021?

I'm kind of in the mindset of only doing FDD at big 4, otherwise I'll go straight to industry. Am I being too down on mid-market FDD experience and the related exit ops?

Also, I can't go the route of doing FDD at a different big 4. Already got rejected by all of them cause I'm not in audit (but have CPA).
