😭😭 my tax senior is leaving for a Big 4 job after this week (we're a small public accounting firm.) So proud of her, but now I need to hire a senior tax preparer. If you know anyone near Seattle who's looking for a tax position send them my way.

Want a referral to Deloitte OP? 😉

I interviewed with Deloitte Seattle years ago. Great people there. My dad is elderly and lives in the east. The rest of my family is in Seattle.

I do think about the next chapter of my life being out west and I'd be thrilled to go there.

I work at a mid size and am tired of so many people just not caring anymore (esp in an employee's market), being sloppy and not using their brains. Consequently, I had to work 70 hours weeks and 83 last week and spent yesterday working on 8621s because the preparer just didn't even half try.

Oh well. Happy 10/17. Some days, I wish I could be a senior again and just prepare complex returns, manage my own clients and just have some peace and quiet.

Offering advice to job seekers who go around recruiters and message hiring teams, execs, etc. You are putting the Recruiters job in danger. If a Recruiter declines you or doesn’t choose to reach out, it is because the hiring team declined you, or you don’t have the experience. You will most likely not be considered for future roles because of this. When I see people giving advice to reach outside the Recruiter, it’s bad advice. Very rare is this a good idea.

It’s hard to trust the partners/leadership when they want us to return to office as being better when we increase offshoring?
