ASAP. Negotiate your start date. It rarely works out perfectly, so better to have lead time.

@OP - it’s a better idea to start early. Even if you just tell them at the top that you can’t start until November. Call it an informational interview if you want. Skype or phone, they don’t need to fly you out today. But yeah - get yourself on the radar now so that when something does open up somewhere you wanna be, November is the perfect start date for both of you.

Plus, a lot of people don’t have much hiring money in Q4 (November-December) so if they already know they like you and want you there this will give them a chance to plan for that budgetary-wise.

@AD1, do you think it’d be a prob at all if I really can’t move to November. Like they won’t try and get me to come earlier?

OP as mentioned before it will likely not work out perfectly. However, working out things leading up to the date and having the option to work with the new hire is ideal. Alternatively, if you wait until the ideal window opens up: the offer could go away, you will likely be pressed to find apartment, roommate, car, etc. All of this takes time, so best to be in front of it.

Have others found it hard to transition from Audit to Financial Analyst? All the recruiters I’m meeting with are telling me I probably won’t get an interview since they’re looking for someone who’s ready to hit the ground running.

I'm a cashier. We just got a new manager, and she's making things really hard for us. She starts work at 4:30am and leaves around 2:30pm, but she still expects us to stay until 6pm and work on the weekends! She gives us really long shifts and doesn't give us much time for breaks. And when we ask her about it, she gets mad.

I'm worried that if I speak up, she'll make my life even harder. I don't want to lose my job because of this—do you guys have any advice?

A new analyst has joined our team and we often give them models/ slides but don’t always ask them if they know all of the accounting principles to be able to make minute adjustments to EBITDA or free cash flow. We are a FIG platform, so the knowledge required is relatively unique as well and not as easy to google as corporate transactions. Is there a better way to coach the analyst short of just throwing them in the deep end to figure it out or should we wait for them to ask us for help?
