On the bench = stop shaving

Hi guys, I am on bench for last 5 months joined as a fresher.If i switch now and give my experience letter to new employer and in interview i tell them about the project which I did on my own and don't inform them about my bench time. Will this impact my future ? Accenture Capgemini

I don’t understand how people keep posting about the bench and being unassigned. I’m in advisory(not audit) and my entire LoS is trending 90%+ utilization

Currently Talenttree doesn’t have opportunity based on my profile

Help me to choose among following options:

1. How long do I need to wait for the matching profile meanwhile continue doing 201 certifications?

2. Should I resign or no need to because bench period early release might be negotiable?
