Interview prep:

I have an upcoming interview with EY GPS for a Technology Risk position consisting of 2 live interviews over 2 hours.

Does anyone know what kind of format or questions I'll be asked and have any advice for prep?

Thanks!

Are you interested in IT audit? EY has a tendency to mislead people interviewing for Tech Risk.

I can confirm, it almost 100% audit role and little consulting. I think EY is a great company just the role is a little dull. Don’t get your hopes up on internal transfer either they are rare.

Not trying to be rude but want to make sure you know what your getting yourself into.

Hi all! Is anyone here in Underwriting? Just want some thoughts on this as i’ve recently gotten an offer for an Underwriting Associate position and have never done any salary negotiations before.

Plus i’m also accounting for wiggle room as i’m not expecting them to actually agree with the full 12k counter offer

Researching the job mkt & pay for nursing: It is so easy to set up a first interview esp. as a nurse. Set up a zoom meeting, in the zoom meeting ask abt job details and ask for the salary range. They will give it to you, and in my case it was the same range for both of the companies. (Hospice oncall nurse here👋). Then you fit in somewhere on that continuum based on education & experience—that where the negotiation comes in—they will make a case to place you as low as possible on the scale.

Confused!
So I am working as a UI UX designer since Jan22. I started with a really good project (everything from the scratch) with research, knowing the user etc. The project went really well. It was my first project that I handled individually. I got another project it also went well. Then I was told to work directly with a client, it's been 2 months already we work late hours and also on weekend (asked by the client). It feels like my personal life is gone. Do you think I should change job?
