Say that you live in country A. You apply to a job in company X in country B (connecting with a director through LinkedIn). 4/5 days after a recruiter talks to you for a position in company X but in country A. You strongly prefer country B over A, so you state clearly to HR that you're willing to be part of the process only if you can also interview in B.

You do not bring this up again and are in last round for X in country A. You have not heard back yet from B but prefer it. WWYD?

Why are you in the last round for country A when you only want to interview for country B? Also, you could have done without the company X notation since there is only one company.

Where does it say that I only want to interview for country B? It's still a great opportunity regardless of the country, only that I prefer B vs A because of international exposure, and because I like it better there.

I would only bring it up as a question regarding international projects/secondment in the future etc

To me it’s a done deal for country A

What I am concerned with is the what if... but i do not want to seem rude to the director in B who received my CV by sending a reminder nor unthankful to the team in A

Does anyone regret joining a boutique consulting firm? I signed with a startup out of college (spring 2020) whose founding partners were all partners/Sr leaders at a few T2s.

I’m just having second thoughts as exit opportunities aren’t as prevalent as I thought, the pay/benefits don’t match industry/risk of joint a startup, and I’m not getting the network of a Big4 or MBB

So I have been made an offer by a company I like but it’s pretty similar to my current package (I also like where I am). The recruiter is pretty intense and is pitting me against another candidate but says I’m the number one choice and is asking me for a number to say yes “but not too high or the team will look at the other candidate”
I’m close to send them to get stuffed. I’m also awaiting a promo and interview feedback from Google. Any advice?

Been feeling very low for a very long time. Working with a Big Four for 7+ years (since graduation) and was excited to join consulting as I get easily bored, wanted to grow at an exponential scale and wanted to travel for work. Cut to now, though I am well sought after for my skills and consistently got 25%+ bonus, I feel I have achieved nothing cuz I didn't get the promotions that I worked for, people have been chosen over me for overseas travel and destroyed my social life. Venting only! :)
