My SO works in KPMG finance transformation. A lot of days he's on at 6 am and logs off after midnight. It goes in waves for him. But I think he's just on a crazy project, likely not indicative of the whole, just like any firm/practice each project varies so curious to see what other ppl on FB say

I’ve been in FT for 4 years and agree with K2. Average about 45 hours. Sure, there are some weeks and projects that require longer hours, later nights, and earlier mornings, but hasn’t been bad overall.

Honestly it just depends on the project you get put on

Can echo what others above have said. Currently on a project that demands 60-70 hours a week but have been on projects that require 40-45 hours as well. It depends on your team/project but it’s all ebbs and flows.

How common are the heavier projects and how easy / hard is it to avoid the heavier projects?

Hello Fishes,
My brother is a b.com graduate(2020 passed out) and looking for a job.
The problem here is because Finance jobs requires exceptional skills and academics due to which he is not able to get shortlisted for most job interview screening, he is receiving interview calls from great companies but not able to convert them.
If anybody can help even with an Internship position at their firm that would be a great starter to his career.

PS: leave a like so that I can send Dms across✌

I applied for a Director Learning and Development (L&D) role at McKinsey about a month ago via a referral. About a week ago, my McKinsey employee (who referred me) received an automated email saying that I had moved to the pre-screening process of the recruitment process and that I'll hear from the recruiter shortly.

It's more than a week now and I haven't heard back. Can anyone shed light on the process -- what to expect, timelines, what is the interview process like, etc.

Thanks!

For reference, all associates are around the firms minimum requirement, it’s just that a few of us are 30+% over and it is leading to burnout.
