Need perspective. Got a job offer from Accenture for 100k and level 9 and in AFS. 4 years consulting experience. Haven’t been staffed on a project yet, is it because my bill rate is too high?

No. Your bill rate does not correlate with your salary in the way you’re describing. Anyone staffing you just looks at your level and has pre-determined rate cards for that level.

This is just a tough sales cycle. We should see it pick up in March.

I see. Was curious how it all worked. Thanks for the information!

No.

Sales cycles are a bit longer this time of year which means it takes a bit of time for work to be sold and statements of work to be signed.

I am happy to help

Are you saying you haven't been staffed yet at BAH? If that's the case, what's your level and pay at BAH, and how does that compare to the AFS offer? Unless you're drastically overpaid for the rate you can be billed at to the point that you're way off the high end of the salary band for your level, your salary doesn't impact your ability to be staffed.

Yeah probably tbh. 100k for AFS consultant is a lot. It shouldn’t matter if you have hot skills

C1. It certainly does but you didn’t provide info that you

left three weeks ago

worked here for five years and I’ll assume you were a campus hire.

context matters.

.Anyway I’m not going to belabor the point any longer I wish you the best
