Do you wake up jazzed about status reports? Do you dream in red/yellow/green? Do you love transcribing everything people say into transformative meeting notes? If you answered yes to any of these, you’re on the right path!

If you can negotiate to senior Associate, please do that. Coming in as an Associate will most likely have you monitoring mail and taking meeting notes till you "prove yourself" on each project, and even then not all the time.

I have 2 years of experience in IT architecture so it’s a bit of a pivot so I don’t know how I feel about coming in as an associate especially since PMO work isn’t exactly my first choice. Just wanted some insight regarding the PMO role in regards to KPMG and management consulting

I had my Assessor interview this past week and received a pre-screening questionnaire that asked about dual citizenship status. Because I don't even have a passport for the country I am a dual citizen for, I didn't even think about the possibile complications this could lead to with my application. I applied through a career fair at school and didn't see the citizenship requirements, so I guess that's on me.

When I was hired, I don't recall being informed about my salary being tied to my location. My employment contract also only makes one mention of location, and says "home office" and my state. I was recently told by HR though that if I move, my comp. will be lower. Is this legal? Should I consult a labor lawyer?

In my mind, I don't recall being told this and it's not clear from my employment contract, so I feel like they're breaking our agreement, and it feels unfair.
