New to Accenture. Reached out to an MD for a specific type of role. They’re a really influential MD who I want in my corner, but they sent me a bunch of opportunities that are not what I was looking for. How do you say no without burning a bridge?!

You don't say no but try to figure out which opportunity gives you better exposure to the MD. If this MD is important for building your network the type of work can take a backseat for some time.

Find a high demand tech skills and become the expert in that skill. Know it inside and out. Those people are the people that everyone want.

Also....leave the MD alone. Roomie mistake reaching out to them. All MDs have a team that are their go to guys. Befriend them....make their lives easier. They will talk about how awesome you are to the MD. Once that happens the MD will approach you.

Approaching the MD directly reeks of kiss up / desperation. Everyone exec can see through this from a mile away. Their respect for you will drop will disappear

I also provide an office and everything that comes with that, and admin assistance. Thanks in advance!

Hello fishes,
I was interviewed in Feb this year and was confirmed verbally by Oracle. Also sent docs for BGV.

Meanwhile I joined another company but would like to consider Oracle if they come back with positive news. What are the chances of releasing the offer?

Anyone hiring those who have been out of work for a year? I took time off to tend to personal matters, but I am now looking to get back into the workforce again. My previous experience includes time at B4 audit up to senior level and then transitioned to manager in industry. Senior/manager roles are preferred.

I don’t mind audit. However, I’d prefer it not to be at a B4, as I am looking for some semblance of a work life balance.

DM me if you have something above, thanks.
