After the initial interview with a recruiter, how long does it usually take to hear back about next steps and talking to the hiring manager? When is a good time to follow up?

Goal: Data Science/ML

1. UGA MSBA (likely free)
2. OMSCS/OMSA (possibly work FT aswell)
3. Work FT and find out what I really want to do

Context: Going into final year of MIS degree with CS minor at UGA. Really enjoying classes on hard skills, haven’t taken all the business side classes but so far not as interesting. Interning at KPMG for data analytics rn, haven’t gotten much useful experience. Family may have financial hardship soon.

Looking for a job change.. plz suggest if there are any openings..
Skillset: .Net Full Stack developer, YoE: 6 yrs.

I’m graduating from my MSA program and I have two offers:

1) FDD @ KPMG

2) CMAAS @ PwC (trying to move offer to valuations)

I want to use these TAS roles to move into more M&A advisory roles like IB/Corp Dev. PwC comp is a decent amount higher due to the $10k salary increase so it makes the decision a bit harder. Would CMAAS make it impossible to make the jump to IB-type roles due to how much technical accounting is involved?

Ex co-worker made this odd scene about my "glow up" and even posted to social media a picture she insisted both couples take.
