So I internally transferred from audit to FDD last year but my old audit team still reaches out with questions (especially because it’s busy season now). What do you y’all do in these scenarios?

Kind of depends - is it just a handful of questions that are easy to answer that they couldn’t figure out on their own? If so spend the few minute to be helpful. Or is it them bothering you constantly with dumb questions they could answer themselves or asking you to do work for them? If so tell them to pound sand

This is the correct answer. You don’t want to completely blow off the prior relationship but at the same time, don’t let them take advantage of you.

I did the same thing and I like my old team so I answer their questions. It really doesn’t take much time to answer the questions they send so I do it, it is a bit annoying though I agree

You help them out! Be kind!

On the contrary to what everyone else has said, I’d tell you to just ignore them or acknowledge their question and tell them you don’t have time right now to look. You’re not part of their team anymore and you shouldn’t feel like you have to answer their questions.

Tell them M&A is super humus right now if they don’t leave you alone haha

You can just say that you are on busy deals.

Currently a staff in audit - 6 months in. Glad to be learning a lot, and have had a generally positive experience at the firm other than a few interactions, some tough busy season nights. Really been intrigued by TAS/M&A, however, and had a few convos with a senior in TAS i know at the firm. It’s closer to what I studied, but don’t know how to make the jump as it seems an internal transfer could take 6+months/senior rank and a lot of convincing. Is it better to jump firms/has anyone done this?
