This.

If you have a pulse you will get hired in this group but be prepared to work

It’s all relative. But FS is short staffed across the board.

My tip is that every interview is different, and depends on a variety of factors such as the person conducting the interview, as well as your background and experience. My advice is that you have already received an interview request is to dress properly, practice speaking in full sentences, and smile while the interviewer talks about themselves. If you’ve already earned an interview, you’ll likely be accepted for the position as long as you have a pulse. Good luck!

Thank you! I just heard they ask very technical questions so wanted to be prepared

Depending on the level, most interviews tend to be behavioral in nature

Hi all,

After the final interview, HR reached out and said they would like to extend an offer. HR gave a ball park of 135k - 145k base with about 15k in sign-on equity and 20k annual bonus.

After a couple of days, HR person came back with with 125k base and 20k annual bonus. No sign-on equity anymore. What should I do given that these numbers seem way lower than the initial range provided? HR claimed it’s because of “market conditions”.

Should I stay at a company I know I like culture-wise when my manager said they will try to promote me, but with no guarantee. Or should I take a job offer I was given with a nice raise, but is in consulting at Slalom. I have not worked in consulting before. There is no travel with Slalom, but the idea of being the new person all the time isn’t too appealing. Less pay and known culture, or more pay unknown job satisfaction?

Compliance question here, I have always thought of the SALT deduction on the fed return as a perm item & have treated as such in such sch M-3. I see that some people put it as a temp on sch M-3. What is the justification for treating it as a temp on the M-3. You don’t set up a deferred on the def RF for the state tax deduct & it is also a rate impacting item (I know that some temps can be rate impacting). But this all leaves me to side with perm. Does anyone know the logic behind temp treatment?
