I've been a Senior Accountant at my company for 3 years. A manager role just opened up and I applied internally. Meanwhile I also have a similar manager offer from outside the company at 15% more pay. HR told me the internal process will 'take a few weeks' so do I wait, just take the external offer or use it as leverage? I like my company but I do feel like I could earn more

One of the best ways to get a nice salary bump is to leave for a new role. Can’t hurt to share your offer with your HR team and see how they respond.

That’s some really great advice, thanks very much

I think if.you have been there 4 years they would know.if they want you in that role.or not?

You’d think so wouldn’t you

The external role will an element of unknown and a learning curve involved more than shifting roles internally. You have decide how much that is worth to you in terms of comp difference. Then, like others said, discuss this with HR if you are good with moving on to the external offer. I say that because sometimes these situations can cause internal friction.

It is a risk I suppose to take the outside offer but any sort of pay increase is greatly appreciated at the moment haha

Hey All,
I finished a third round interview, and HR contacted me that afternoon saying I had positive feedback across the board and they would contact me the next day regarding next steps. It’s been two days and they finally get back to me saying they haven’t been able to sync with the hiring manager but will keep me posted. Honestly I wish they would talk with the hiring manager and then let me know the decision instead of checking in. It’s messing with my emotions.

Some recruiter in Accenture lined me up for an interview for a role which was not in my skillset ( by saying that this is just an evaluation exercise and they will map me to the right role) and obviously I got rejected. Now I see that I am not eligible to apply the role which I was targeting for the next 6 months. Any idea how can I get this escalated so that the recruiter ( Accenture employee) should at least be careful in future before fooling a noob like me?
