They were going on a hiring freeze and felt I was better suited for another vertical/practice. The recruiter told me to keep an eye out on for roles in that practice and reach out as soon as I find something. My Q - is it a good time to reach out to the recruiter now? Anyone from PwC able to comment if they’re still on hiring freeze or they’re gradually resuming hiring?

Still on a hiring freeze. Duration tbd for obvious reasons of business uncertainty

Thank you both! I’d hold off then. Don’t want to pester if I know it’s not going anywhere
