Intro call at PwC today and it only lasted 10 min. Recruiter was late and did not even explain the job description. I’ve never experienced anything more unprofessional. Is this common?

Oh yikes, I’m sorry to hear that. Not sure how common it is at PwC or P&T specifically (I hope it’s rare!) but I’ve heard across the industry that there’s a lot of recruiter turnover. Idk if that’s true at PwC but if so it could be a component of the bad experience.

Yes lots of turnover in PWC recruiting and HR. Have had to turn to contractors in many cases and a lot of new hires still learning. Those that are experienced have had their work load doubled to cover the gaps.

Care to share the recruiters name, just had a referral and the recruiter gassed him up but hasn’t given him a update in two months

I come to find out that deep, hidden within the website of the hypothetical client, they use the service already. Do I roll into the final interview and play dumb or do i present and then come clean?

I'm holding an offer from MakeMyTrip and another offer from OlaElectric. Ninjacart is willing to make me an offer. But they're saying that they'd discuss the offer only after the other company that I'm interviewing with has come up with an offer first. 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. Would that be too awkward if I accept & back out their offer?

Digital culture, and how we are real and take care of each other, is just AMAZING. That speech alone made me so proud to be here and turned around a lot of my negative thoughts.
