I have a 1st screening call with a senior manager in risk advisory with a big 4. Not clear if it’s for a manager or a senior role. Any tips?

figure out if you think you'd be successful in the manager role. don't just shoot for it because it's a higher role. experienced hires can crash and burn if they're brought it in at the wrong level... or they can have a long sustainable career.

of course if you feel you're a good fit for manager go for it but the decisions isn't a simple no brainer
