Imagine being on the Enron audit and rolling home after shredding the audit file/support. That would be an interesting interview to find staff/seniors/managers who were involved.

We had a few professors that were Andersen seniors/staff at the time. They would invite people that were actually on the engagement to come speak. One lady has pretty much made it her career (mainly because she said it was very difficult to find a job with that on your resume). It was super interesting.

I've been interviewing with another company for about a month. The whole process has been 3 interviews over a months time.

The new company wants someone to lead a team from a senior level (HR Director) - what advice do you have for taking the next step in my career? I'm likely going to take the offer if it comes.

There's been a delay from HRs of the companies in a similar way. How do I urge them to send me the offer letter without sounding pushy? I had reached out to some of the HRs myself.
