I've 3 YOE doing fed govt work, advisory and audit. Am I locked into govt work, or am I still early enough in my career to jump over into a commercial service line like fdd or fp&a without having to be busted down to staff again.

I feel like having some commercial work under my belt will give me better exit opportunities.

And next question: which service lines would be the most advantageous to get into?

Hello everyone,

I wanted to know how long does Course5i take to release an offer, I cleared all rounds last friday and was going to get an offer from HR early this week (by Monday evening or Tuesday) but didn’t get any offer till now.

I loved the role and I am still excited to join the organisation so mailed a follow up to the HR yesterday but did not get any response till now. I do not want to follow up for the next 1-2 days since I feel it would be too pushy from my end.

My wife is a Chartered Accountant with 7+ years of experience as credit manager, underwriting loans with some leading banks in India.

She has been a star performer and promoted twice in the last 3 years. One problem is companies look for US experience which she does not have, we just moved here early this year.

Ready to give referral for USI. Give me job id, resume and cover letter alongwith job id.
