I’m currently interviewing with EY faas and my current company is a ch1 client of them. Recruiter told me she needs to reach out to the engagement partner, and likely my company, before they can proceed with interviews. I’m fine with contacting the partner, but obviously not my company yet as my team doesn’t know I’m interviewing and I don’t want them to know until I know for sure I will leave. Can I ask the recruiter to not contact my company until I get an offer from EY?

My understanding is that if I accept the offer, I can’t work on work related to my company for a year, or whatever the cooling period would be, so I feel that it’s not necessary to contact my company now.

Dm me a a referral to KPMG if you are interested while exploring your options.

There haven’t been openings since late May unfortunately. Similar situation so heading to FAAS.

Yes, you can ask the recruiter to not contact your company until you have an offer. The recruiter will honor your request. They may say they cannot proceed unless they contact your employer (I don’t know), but then you just make a decision. The decision is yours either way.

So if they say they have to contact, then I’ll either stop the process or let them contact and inform my team?

I came from Ch 1 and this wasn’t an issue. When I was in the middle of interviewing I let the SM on the audit engagement know so he could inform the partner if needed and confirm there were no issues and he said it wasn’t a big deal.

When I got the offer and told my company they were mad and went back to the contract with EY to see if they had a provision about not taking our employees…. So perhaps this is related specifically to the relationship between EY and their client.
