I was not promoted to senior associate. I came in as an experienced hire and due to some timing issues with hire date and reviews, I didn’t demonstrate enough in time. I am generally well liked at my office. My goal is to transition to transaction advisory externally. How bad will not being promoted hurt me in applying for these positions once they open up? I have my cpa.

It should be based on performance ratings. Although you did not get promoted if you received decent ratings that shouldn’t cause a problem. When you decide to transition just talk to your teams/connections to help. That should suffice.

What about if I don’t want to stay at KPMG, but want to go to another big 4? Will my lack of promotion hurt me?
