So here is something that seems weird to me. I'm about to be a senior 2 at EY, with reviews at or above my peer group, and most companies won't even give me a phone interview...

Hi all -
Sorry for the long rant, but could use advice or just encouragement.

Got laid off for the first time in my career 3 weeks ago. I have 10 years of PM experience (mostly ecommerce & experimentation). I was fortunate in the past to have had recruiters scout me directly so this is the first time in over a decade that I am applying to everything that I’m qualified for, mostly qualified for, and way over qualified for with zero leads. Only 3 interviews thus far that didn’t go forward.

Hello there audit folks! Anybody considering a shift to financial due diligence? Happy to discuss opportunities at EY, please DM me if interested. We are really looking for folks with healthcare or tech experience and can move extremely quickly during the interview process. I've been in the group for years and transitioned as a senior so can share the positives and negatives.

Hey There,
Currently working as Electrical engineer in medical device company. Been applying to few battery and electrical engineering jobs at amazon in seattle and california locations. If anyone could provide referral for the job, that would be very helpful.

In house interview- I am going to hopefully the final round of interview to meet the whole legal team. I was asked about my availability, and it will take 5 hours if in one day. Should I split to multiple days? Will it cause any issues? Anyone on both sides can speak from their experience? Thanks!

Hi Fishes,

Been at a “top 5” agency for 2 years now and haven’t produced a single piece of work that I feel is book worthy. Granted, there is the whole global pandemic thing. But at what point do you start looking for a new job? Is 2 years long enough to at least get some cred for the name on the resume, despite not making anything great?

Guys, I interviewed at amex gurgaon 10days ago and was told by VP that I will hear from HR very soon. But when I checked on HR yesterday, she said interviews are still in progress and it will take a week more to finalize.

In your experience, would my current job (SMB, Sales role, CPA networking) be a benefit if I transitioned into this industry?

I’ve heard salaries have gone up quite a bit in the midst of the pandemic and I’m wondering if this is true for EAs as well. There’s a myriad of data online about EA salaries depending on age/experience but I’m interested in salaries from jobs accepted in 2020/2021 specifically!

Please feel free to share:

- Your salary from any job accepted in 2020/2021
- Any offers you may have received but rejected
- Your length of experience

Thank you!

Is the CPA designation worth it? For me it would take me 1 year of PREP courses and 2 years of PEP until i can write the CFE. And I am 27 years old right now. Also wondering if it would be crazy to pursue the CPA while learning how to code to be a developer as well?

I moved to private and they expect everyone in the office throughout the pandemic. I get my work done from home but am constantly called out about “hiding.” Is anyone else in accounting actually going into the office?? How am I the weird one here??
