Interviewed for a reporting and analytics mgr role today. Job req had a cursory mention of statistics. Anyhow the first guy was a data scientist with a PhD. Grilled my ass about everything. Was tough!

Hope you did well. Reporting is no longer SAS and Microstrategy if your clients want actionable hypotheses driven insights. Knowing more than how to use R and Python, also knowing when and how the various models are applicable is critical.

Not my point MD1. My point is don’t interview me for a role I’m clearly not qualified for. How hard is it to read a resume? What a waste of my time.

Nice what company was that? We probably did a finance data and analytics transformation for them ;)

Interview tomorrow for a tax associate opening at RSM. Been working in a mid-size city (different firm) that is about 70 minutes from this new home office in a larger metro. How flexible is WFH or dual model going forward post Covid? Am interested in this position and going to tax, but not be able to relocate for family reasons. Don’t want to drive 700 miles per week M-F. What will dual model be like going forward? 1-2 times week, 4-5 month? Seems like tax was more flexible than audit pre-Covid
