Better than being laid off

Recent IconRecent

We had a new joiner recently get transferred out specifically for SOX testing. They were with the group for one month and now they will be gone for 3 months minimum. While I understand why and think it's better than laying people off, this bites us in the ass when these people come back to Deals "experienced" with zero deals experience. It was a big problem post the PPP rotations.

This is me right now. How does it bite the team in the ass and how can I help navigate this when I go back?

Which office is this happening at?

I'm on a project with people from different offices so I guess everywhere

I'm looking at applying to MBB (Preferably BCG) for a summer internship this summer. I'm a first-gen Oxbridge student, and while I have little experience in consulting along the lines of MBB, I did work in the city last summer as an sustainability consultant.

I'm curious how important it is to have a referral etc and what you'd recommend for applications opening in jan. Any advice is super appreciated I don't have any connections to the industry but it's something im interested in.

I’m trying to transfer departments at my company and I talked to the MD of the department i wanna transfer to, and told him working remotely is a requirement to me, and he said he’s not sure if that’s possible, and that would depend on HR and the hiring manager. He still forwarded my resume to HR and I got an interview. How should I negotiate to make the role fully remote?
