I gave my availability for an interview to a Deloitte recruiter last week on Wednesday. I know there was a 4th of July break in between but the recruiter has since gone radio silent. I find this unprofessional. Any advice?

Well you are not the one hiring me so not sure why you would comment that. Not entitled maybe worried and concerned. I have been ghosted by recruiters, so perhaps that’s why I am worried. I think I got that point about waiting and calling it unprofessional is a stretch but I feel as though the delivery could have been kinder.

That is surprising. Maybe the recruiter didn’t realize a lot of people (especially PPMDs) are out this week. Either way it’s been not even 2 business days though so chill lol

I feel you with the anticipation as I’m also waiting to hear back from a Deloitte recruiter. But as everyone is saying it’s been a 5 day weekend for D and you have to realize interviewing one potential SC in a company of thousands isn’t that big of a deal for them…you’re a drop in the bucket and they are in the position of power here, not you. They can easily find 1000 more “you”s. (This is also what I’m telling myself as I feel impatient lol)

It’s like dating. You should pipeline. People flake all the time so you have to backup plans and plan b’s and c’s if you want to guarantee you get the attention you’re looking for.

My concern is flaking. It’s not all they uncommon with the big 4

I've heard a couple of things about how the partner pension amount @ PwC is determined, both similar in approach.

Both calculations I have heard of result in an annuity paid until death, at which point a surviving spouse (if any) receives the annuity.

The first calculation I have heard is that you get 80% of your highest earning year as a partner (e.g. If your best year was $1M, you'd get $800k as an annuity).

The second calculation I have heard is that they look at your three highest earning years as a partner, and take the second highest and you get 100% of that. (e.g if your three highest earning years were $1M, $800k, and $1.2M, you'd receive $1M as an annuity).

Is ANY of this true, or just all rumor? Any PwC partners that can chime in and explain the pension plan fact for fact? Perhaps with sample numbers?
