Hey Partners! I accepted a position at another firm and was bumped from manager to Senior consultant level. Could you give me some advice on 3 key things I can focus on to help me re-advance quickly?

Feeling so down after being turned down for MD. And exit appears to be so hard - getting no traction in Industry or PE right now.

Partners - absent the paycheck, do you enjoy your job? Regardless of yes/no, did you enjoy the path to getting there? If you didn't, what convinced you to keep going at it?

I got rejected for an interview from Big 4 NY Audit, even had referrals from Manager + level people. 3 years w/ audit senior at mid size firm, 2 years fed tax at big 4, and 1.5 years Internal Audit healthcare. Currently self employed for a year to work on investing. Do I literally need a partner level referral to get back into Audit? I thought there was an accountant shortage.

I have some experience in cost mgmt/optimization field and want to join big 4 for better exposure. Are these teams currently actively hiring?

Is it really that difficult to get hired for a federal job? I was interviewed for a GS12 job but never heard back, they still didn’t hire anyone and I didn’t get a rejection.
