Sorry OP. Aside from campus recruiting I think a lot of Big 4 firms are temporarily suspending any staff-level hiring.

I specifically meant for M&A tax. Sorry I was unclear! However if you see job postings for associates and seniors, I’d still encourage you to apply.

Still seems a little quick, could’ve been an error in the application that meant the system didn’t see you as a candidate that met the minimum criteria.

I once applied to a job and maybe not even 3 mins later my denial came back

Sometimes when they are resetting the system Or transitioning jobs from one fiscal period to the next, the system automatically rejects any currently submitted applications. Re-apply immediately.

I'm now interviewing with EY, so it's all good! already interviewed with a couple of senior managers and a partner. Partner wants a short follow up interview next week, so I am very hopeful this works out.

Hello, If I had failed to clear siemens healthineers interview, Is it possible to attend another interview, Is their a cooling period?

Friend of mine was supposed to receive an offer (told verbally) from Deloitte and then just found out they are pausing on hiring the role. How common is that? Seems wildly unprofessional that none of the partners called and instead it was the recruiter conveying that news. At McKinsey, if that happened, the head of the practice or the office would personally make the phone call at the very least.

Hi all,

I interviewed with capgemini for SAP ABAP role and my YOE is 4 years. Just 2 hours after my interview, I got a call from someone at Capgemini saying that I am selected.
They just asked my notice period and current location.I asked them, what is the next round going to be and they said that it is going to be salary discussion. But till now, no one has reached out to me.
Does it mean they got another candidate for same job?
If they get back to me, how much should I ask?
