Referral is the best way. Also reaching out to recruiters via LinkedIn is the next best option.

Thank you I will try that out!

What groups are you applying to?

Mainly Advisory, but have applied to a few business process consulting roles

I applied at a bunch as well (mid tier too) and heard nothing. They’re either very delayed or like the others have said I had to go through LinkedIn to get noticed.

Happy to refer!

Hi what office locations are you applying to?

Need a referral to P dubs and we can split the referral bonus? Lol

Is there such things as FP&A positions in Big 4? If so, are there better times to make the change than others (I.e. at senior vs manager)? I’m currently in FP&A and looking to work at a Big 4, or another company that offers the ability to move abroad. My current company and many others I know about do not offer the mobility to do so until much later, which is not what I want. Thank you.

If you’re at B4, would you get any serious consideration at M7s if you tried to matriculate right when you hit the 3 year mark (apply at 2)? I hear that a lot of MBB people do this but the standard timeline for B4 seems to be to matriculate at 4 YOE.

Are firms willing to negotiate the role with campus hires? I received an offer for a big 4 in risk, which I signed early in September, but just now received another offer in TAS from a different firm. While I much prefer the big 4 firm, I do not want to work in risk anymore. Would a big 4 be willing to change groups? Have you heard of anyone able to do this? I feel kind of bad, but I truly despise the idea of working in risk now. ( My friend who's in the role right now hates it)
