Is there anyone who resigned without any backup offer

How is your job hunt going. Did you get benefit of reduced notice period

This is how I play:

I fake one month notice. I attend interview, post clearing all round I get offer with one month notice. Within few hours I go back to future employer HR and say “sorry I tried my level best! They are not accepting for reduced notice which happened for my colleagues earlier. My bad luck. Kindly give me 3 month notice definitely il join” out of 5 interviews at least one company will accept this. Rest 4 companies’ interview is my experience on attending interviews.

As a prayachitam I don’t ditch that company which believed me and provide 90 days notice time. So I morally feel not bad. Becoz though initially I lie, I didn’t cheat that one employer who trusted me.
End of story!

Is the MBB name really worth it over Big4, T2, Boutiques in terms of exit opps?

Would love to hear from experienced hires who have insight into both types of exits (MBB vs other) to better comp and wlb (tech is ideal but any industry works).

I know type of case work factors heavily into opportunities but how much does the MBB name really open? Is that name recognition worth leveling down to grind for another few years?

I may lose a job opportunity because of my credit history - what can I do?

Started in *May* - Prior to signing everything, I expressed concern to the recruiter about the credit check. Honestly, it’s not great but it’s not terrible. The recruiter told me many times to not sweat it because it the background check was the main thing. And that we could talk through anything on the credit report. Now HR is telling me they may rescind the offer pending review. I’m crushed. What can I do?

Is there a bowl that would be for best exit opportunities for those who are in consulting? My experience is in tech risk. Kind of feel like I’m stuck leaving the big 4 to only go into a compliance role in industry
