Yes - if you try to lateral after you’re promoted you’ll be brought in as a C anyway

That’s going to be a long shot. MBBs don’t automatically take someone’s promotion. Most people get cut in tenure credit coming from tier 2, the best you’ll get is lateral to the same level.

Hello RSM coworkers! I am thrilled to be moving to RSM into a Scheduler roll. I just found out yesterday and want to be as prepared as possible in the next steps.

So here are my questions.

How long does the background study take? I'm guessing admin staff have a study that is faster and less complicated than someone in Tax ect.

When training at home what did you need that wasn't supplied by RSM? My home office is well stocked but I want to be as prepared as possible.

Thanks in advance!
