Is it just me or has anyone else noticed that this entire industry seems to have a massive skill gap? As someone who’s been at multiple firms/service lines: everyone elsewhere at least meets some minimum threshold of competence.

Contrast that to forensics and every team seems to consist of 1-2 exceptional people who actually “get it” and then 60-80% of people riding coattails until someone who knows what they’re doing can come in to save the day. Agree or no?

Hey guys, so I am currently a business project coordinator. I am looking for new endeavors due to management changes.

At some Big 4 companies there is a Partner / Principal group that has equity and are part owners of the business and an equivalent Managing Director group that does not have equity and are essentially employees.

How does it work at McKinsey / Bain ? Do those same distinctions exist across partner types, owner vs non owner?

Any Recommendation institute or website that offered access to SAP ARIBA or EWM Instance Training Server ?

Refer me please. Currently working in Goldman Sachs’ Global Compliance Division, looking for new opportunities. DM me

Recent career-switcher here. While I’m a veteran with the ad process, I am new to the UX agile process. Is it normal to not use briefs whatsoever? Is it normal for the UX research lead to have a stakeholder workshop (sans designers) to think of concept “thought starters,” then have a separate meeting with the UX design lead to vote on which 1 of 3 concepts to proceed with? In advertising, this is analogous to the client and researchers doing the campaign idea then telling the CD to execute it.

I'm a conceptual ACD. Anyone make the transition from being a conceptual ACD that's worked mostly I'm tv/olv, and integrated campaigns? How did you make the transition? Where did you start?

Hi Fishies!

Is anyone hiring for senior level roles for forensic data analytics?

Anyone taken the CFF? Looking for advice on the first exam

Just began studying for the CFE exam. I have access to past editions of the ACFE Fraud Examiners Manual. Does anyone have recommendations on where to get good practice questions? I’d like to avoid spending a fortune on the ACFE kit.

Please share your salary/location/level. I need to negotiate salary and would truly appreciate the help.

Can the group members please share their experience about the CFE exam? How many days of preparation does it require? What are some of the useful study resources?

Anyone at EY in Forensic Data Analytics? If so - do you like the work you’re doing/leadership/etc?

Interviewing for FTI Consulting Forensic Litigation consulting in 1 month. Anyone work for this firm and have any thoughts on them?

Does anyone have the CFF (Certified in Financial Forensics) credential? Has it opened any doors?

Does anyone recall what senior consultant utilization targets are at Deloitte?

Hi , can anyone please share what their interview was like with EY ? I’m applying for a senior position. Thanks

What are the cheapest study materials to study for the CFE? I didn’t want to pay out 1k+ for the prep course from ACFE.

How do Atlanta peeps like their Forensics practices? Trying to gauge which firm has the most interesting work

I'm getting a MAcc to career change to forensic accounting. What opportunities are available to me with a data analytics heavy MAcc? I'm also tacking on 2 graduate certificates in Applied Statistics and International Economic Policy? For those in the field, would that be useful or not useful (i.e. waste of time)? I'm interested in investigations but also analytics, financial modeling, and expert witness services. Throw in salary potential for bonus points. I'll be getting my CPA, CFE, and CAMS.

Wondering for anyone who got their CFF (Ceritified Financial Forensics) designation. Was it difficult? How long does it take to study for using the review course? Is the exam mainly multiple choice or short answer and how difficult? Any guidance or tips would help please. I already have my CFE but just want to know if CFF is worth it

I was wondering if the review course “CPE Self Study Course” for the CFF was enough preparation to study and pass the CFF exam. The CFE review course was enough and like if you get a question wrong it explains it well so that when it comes up in a different way in the real exam you can still get it. But when I saw the outline for the CFF material and there seems to be a lot of topics so I was wondering if the review course was sufficient considering this exam is also multiple choice. Thanks!

Comp question - what should a B4 Senior with a CPA, CFF, CFE, and a MBA with 4 years forensic exp (D&T) and 6+ years non-forensic exp (industry) in NYC and DC markets expect in this current climate?

Anyone have a CFE designation and taken the test recently? Debating about getting it wasn’t sure if it’s worth it.

Considering going for the CFE. What was your study plan for it and how long did it take?

Has anyone used PracticeDump to study for CFE? Is it legit? I’m thinking of getting it since it’s so much cheaper than the one offered by ACFE website
