Is it normal for KPMG US to ghost after an actual interview with someone on the team? Been about 2 weeks now and weekly follow ups. Should I keep following up weekly or just assume it’s a no go?

Try 4 months for an MD role…

Sheeeesh

KPMG tried to screw me twice. First time (a few years ago) they offered lower than my existing role. They knew it and said "it's a good learning opportunity to start at a lower level".

Last week they cancelled my 2nd interview for a senior role because "I'm too expensive but didn't want to let that be a factor". How about don't waste my time? Blacklisted in my books.

To be quite honest I would rather have both of those other than being ghosted. If you told them salary expectations and they went ahead with the interviews anyway, that’s a different story

Yikes. This worries me. After 5-6 interviews over the last 2 months with them, the recruiter said she anticipated having some good news early this week. It’s now Tuesday night. Seems like a good opportunity too. There are good and bad recruiters and processes at every company right?

Any resume writer referrals? I’m trying to make the jump into project management. I have 13YOE managing cross-departmental projects and people, and I’d like to shed the general EA work of calendars/travel/expenses. But recruiters just see my most recent role is EA and that’s all they want to talk to me about. I’m hoping a better written resume will help target algorithms to get my resume viewed for other roles.

Hi Fishes,

I got an offer from PwC. The joining date that I had agreed from my side was 2 June. But I don't know that even in probation the NP is 90 days (it was mentioned in the release doc as 1 month but I didn't take that screenshot as proof). I told the whole issue to my recruiter and she sent a confirmation mail stating that she will revise my joining date by 90 days without issue. Is there any chance they can revoke the offer? I have put down my papers already.

Anybody else noticed recruiters are only proactively reaching out about hybrid/on-site roles nowadays?

It's almost as if people don't want to be in offices anymore so that's why it's difficult for them to fill those roles.

So, why are you reaching out to me about jobs in a city 3 hours away that's 100% onsite and w/out even a ReLo?
