Need to vent. Applied to D for their an analyst role through campus recruitment. Did great on interviews and the managers & partner liked me.
Ended up being rejected for an analyst role due to being overqualified for having 2.5 of PWE as an analyst in a different industry. Recruiter argued back, but losing battle against the top guns. Any advice as far as titles to go for post graduation in June

YOE - 2.5 years in Hospitality as revenue analyst, wanting to make a switch due to COVID.

The partner you interviewed with is the top gun. You said he liked you but it's a losing battle against the top guns? Don't apply for campus hire roles they really like to only hire college students for those

Recruiter said it was due to the YOE that I have. Currently in school and trying to get hired before graduation. Thought with a change of industry, entry level positions at a B4 would be within my reach.
Recruiter told me to circle back in June since Experienced Hire can't get to me while I'm in school.

Ah you’re in school. I was like “Deloitte doesn’t reject anyone. How did this happen”

Hi Guys,

After my HR round today, Hr called up and said that will move forward with the offer but approvals with higher management might take some time as there is a hiring freeze.
Do you think offer will be released? And how much time these approvals take ?

She mentioned at the end that they are definitely going to offer as all feedbacks are positive.
But it all depends on the approvals.

I have been working remotely since covid getting nothing but positive reviews. My company is not remote friendly and is now telling me I have to return to the office or I lose my job.
