I had interviewed for an internship position at EY for technology consultant program for summer 2022 and got a call where they extended an offer. I wanted to know if I can defer the internship offer to fall 2022 or a later start date after summer.
I apologize as I cannot reply to a comment or DM on this platform to anyone, but thanks for your answers in advance.

I am looking to identify committed Christians within Deloitte who would be interested in serving on the US board of a global non-profit committed to restoring the lives of those who have been traumatized via human trafficking or gender-based violence in SE Asia. Deloitte has been instrumental in partnering with Hagar International via pro-bono consulting and we would love to leverage this partnership on our US board.
Hi all
Few months back, I accepted @pwc india's offer but didn't join.
Now I was referred for @pwc US but as I was applying for the job, the portal shows previous application with status as offer accepted.
Will pwc consider me again?
Does anyone have any idea on this?
Has someone accepted the offer but didn't join and later joined again after some months?
Please let me know
Any inputs will be helpful
Thanks!

Eek! Didn’t really instill a ton of confidence in that answer. I can appreciate that recruiters are very hesitant to give a black and white answer, but not having anything positive in the WLB is a concern. Might still be worth the interview to find out more. Would be something I’d bring up.
Exactly! I was surprised at the response because I used (what I thought) was a hyperbolic metric for comparison but to NOT say “oh no never “ to “80 hrs” …… Definitely: Eek! 😬
Thanks for the insight!
The fact that you gave a specific number of hours and that was the response says to run away fast if you want any wlb

I'm confused how you're confused. You asked if they value workife balance, they do not, and you do. So...

Lol definitely very best of wishes to you as well 🙏 Good luck out there
Sounds like they definitely do not value WLB, but if you're desperate, might be worth taking the job and continue applying. It's not ideal but I know plenty of people who are doing this in this job market.
RUN! But also, the recruiter might not really know and they don't know how filling the role you're looking at will help the load of the folks already there. Can you talk to folks on the team who would be your peers? Can you ask the hiring manager about the trajectory of the team and project load?
Thanks C1!
I’ve asked about this and the only individual I’ll be able to speak with in the person who is currently handling some of the tasks that will be assigned to the role I’m interviewing for .
I will have to try to glean information about it from them .
hard pass. no wlb

They will chew you up and spit you out. And they told you that when asked.
Interesting take VC1 . Although the response was clear from the recruiter, i haven’t spoken with internal staff yet and was ambivalent about whether or not to proceed in an effort to glean more information.
It seems that your hunch is that the recruiter’s word was enough to turn down the interview with internal staff. Have you been in a similar position that’s conceptually substantiated recruiters being more “in the know” about work culture vs internal employees?
Thanks for your perspective!
