No, off cycle processes are always way slower (painfully slower) than on cycle. I did a lot of off cycle recruiting and the interview processes lasted 6-10 weeks.

I’ve now done off cycle twice (original recruit, lateral). The lateral was 2 weeks start to finish. The initial entry was maybe a monthlong interview process

Process is much slower off cycle. Often a full week or more between interviews. On cycle everything is done within 48 hours

Mine took about a month off cycle with ~1 interview sometimes 2 a week

Hello fishes !
About to be offered a position at Deloitte London as SC. Exp : ~9.
Visa sponsorship is needed. I foresee a possible negotiation on compensation from Deloitte.

Not sure of the estimate yet but I understand it would be 55-60k as per other fishes . Should I settle for a lower comp while employer pays one time sponsorship & migration costs or bear the migration costs self and chase a good salary . Which is better ?

Note : moving to UK with spouse and kid
