I’m a campus hire- on day 24 at Deloitte. Should I be concerned I’m not staffed? I have nothing to do but certification and learning. It’s getting a bit old. And my RM doesn’t respond to my chats or meetings.

When I was a new campus hire I didn’t get put onto a project until two months in. And then I had to wait to get badged.
If you’re worried about utilization: don’t be. First year it’s totally normal and as long as you have a good story it’s fine.
If you’re bored: take up certifications and/or network. Ask your coach for a warm intro to people within your portfolio.
My suggestion: enjoy the time on the bench getting paid to play video games. You’ll be staffed soon enough.
All the best!

I was in the same boat when I first started. At the time, it felt like I had somehow slipped through the cracks. Though my advice now would be…enjoy it. Keep working on the certifications and grow your skill set. Projects will come, but time to develop skills may not. The free, encouraged training is arguably the biggest perk of Deloitte.

I would keep pushing on your RM and communicate with your Coach or OBA about the lack of response. At least to show that you’re doing everything on your end.

But when I started last July, I had like 5 weeks on the bench to start. Didn’t negatively impact my year end stuff, especially if you just keep account of what trainings you’ve done

Nah don't stress it.

I wasn't staffed for 1 month an a half when I was brand new. In retrospect I would have enjoyed it much more.

What you should do if definitely reach out to people that work on projects you may be interested on. Staffit and the other staffing app are garbage. Personal connections will go a long way :)

Hi all!
Would love some insight on how you went from an HR assistant/coordinator to an HR Generalist. I’ve been in the HR world for 8 years, and only in the last 2-3 have I really done real HR work. The first company I was at didn’t have a solid HR team so I don’t really count that. I feel like I’m ready to take on more responsibility and learn more. And of course make more money.

Hello Fishes,

Neev systems is ready to negotiate it with CGI. And both companies have their own benefits.

Neev's hike is good compared to CGI(almost double) & CGI have some additional perks like cab facility, Creche allowance, mobile, internet bills reimbursements and additional 5% shares.

Both might have similar WLB (12-9pm).

My DOJ is tomorrow, unable to decide between them. Pls help me!!

I have been researching into this these days and there is literature that shares how lending worked in pre-Islamic Arabia.

Subsequently ever year the loan wasn't paid it was doubled from the previous year.
