I have an interview with EY for a Business Transformation & Execution senior consultant position. I know I’m not the most qualified for the position as I only have 2 YOE and the minimum for the position is 3 YOE. I really want to do well bc this is my top choice and I’m sure there are more qualified candidates out there. Any tips on what to expect during the interview process and how to do well? And any idea as to what I can expect in terms of total compensation (in a HCOL area)? Thank you!

I'm am putting in my resignation today from EY. EY pays very little.

If you want to get hired - all about appearances. You won't be doing actually work at EY but you need to look like you do. Be confident.

Tell them you achieved XYZ and bring value ABC you love consulting as a job and want to "further career" h working with "big company" that will allow you to "utilize skill sets" to drive "real value"

Try to avoid covid talk. Btw EY requires the vax so u need that. Idk ignore the 3 YOE thing.

Don’t go into the interview with the attitude that others are more qualified than you. I don’t know if you are a woman but women often don’t apply to jobs if they don’t meet every single requirement in the posting, whereas men often apply whether or not they meet the minimum requirements. The firm wouldn’t be interviewing you if they didn’t think you were qualified…so go in there and show them you are the right person for the job!

Reorgs are just a part of the corporate world. If you haven’t been a part of one in your career yet, then you most likely haven’t been in the corporate workforce for very long. If you have been a part of a reorg, however, how do you personally approach it? There are many factors at play, but in general do you try to establish relationships with the individuals you know will be key contributors and/or decision makers going forward? Or do you lay low and let what ever happens be/hope for the best?
