Is it just me or are there entirely too many people in Business Services, specifically TC’s, who are just folks from client service that don’t want to deal with hours and travel anymore but have no formal training in the Business Services function they transition to? It seems to me very few TC’s are professionals in HR with any background, training or certifications in HR.

Get used to it. There is a plan to reduce full time BS staff and have client service staff do a tour to better understand the business on their way to partnership.

funny

Really? It takes a couple of years to understand a BS role, how will a constantly revolving 6 mo tour use effective people needed in BS. Like AFS folks have a very specific curated specialty that can’t be learned in 6 months. And taking 6 mo away from client service is tough to get back into it.

What’s a TC?

Talent consultant.

I’ve had a very different experience. Everyone I interact with in BS seems very driven, sharp and knowledgeable.

TC=HR

That seems like a tremendous waste of time for all involved. I look forward to babysitting the partner track folks while they slum it with those of us in BS.

I agree, but Tim seems to think the Firm hasn't been successful in the last 150+ years and he needs to fix it.

IFS = Advisory retirement before retirement

Do they take time in releasing offer letters generally , or am I rejected already ?

Also, they mentioned 5% engagement bonus , and 8% annual bonus, do they give full amount , or some part of it.

How much an average candidate can expect from these bonus ?
