I’m a senior in audit and have generally worked on public consumer product clients. I’m thinking about making a move to consulting. Any advice on a specific consulting area/group/firm that could be a good fit?

I left B4 for an Advisory firm, I'd probably advise that as a good move - pure consulting (MBB, etc) is tough to break into from PA from my understanding. My firm is pretty great: fully remote, really good pay, lots of ex-B4 folks (who value WLB), no complaints! Happy to refer or discuss the post-B4 job landscape further 👍

We're always open to meet candidates, so I'm able to refer no matter what - even if a service groups isn't actively hiring, if you're a great candidate they definitely won't pass up on you!

Does EG exclusively hire ex B4, how does one get in touch with you?

UPDATE (RE: SoCal Assistant Controller Interview)

So after two weeks of waiting (and giving up on the idea of getting the job really), the recruiter got back to me.

They said due to month-end and quarter-end close they were busy and couldn’t get back to me as quickly for a “good update”.

The recruiter said the CFO enjoyed our call, she, the CFO, will call me next week directly to “discuss some final things”.

Not sure if Im hired or not, but are there any questions about the job, comp (cont.)
