Recently I accepted an offer for a consulting position. However, I was just invited for a interview for a government intern position and that is another organization I would love to work for definitely in the future. How do I decline without burning bridges or potentially asking for fall openings ?

Just tell them you are not available in the summer but open to the fall

I know a lot of consulting firms are offering start dates in the fall for new hires. Try to reach out to the firm for potential start date options and go from there.

I’ve got about 20 years cross channel experience in marketing, split between big brands and startups, and I’m considering pivoting into a data science/data analyst role. I know it will initially be a step back in comp but is it at all realistic for a person with certificate level experience in data analysis but a decent marketing management background to expect $150-200k comp or is that mostly for degreed candidates (or not realistic at all)? Any guidance here is greatly appreciated.

Landed a contract role at Deloitte via MBO Partners for an audit senior role. MBO is making me a W-2 employee for MBO, but I am getting paid $125/hour plus overtime. Am I missing something here or am I about to be making $5K/week (or more with OT)? Anyone have any experience with MBO or doing contract work like this? Obviously way more than I'd make if I stayed at KPMG for busy season.
