I was mid-tier and I finished out my two weeks.

Went from PwC to Deloitte and worked my full notice period. Know other people who went from PwC to kpmg but worked for other partners who let them go same day. Depends on your partner entirely

Oh yes that’s what I was implying. The other partners didn’t need those people so they let them go

I didn’t tell them where I was going and finished out 🤫
Most are dropped

Yeah I told everyone after they don’t care at that point

I finished out two weeks at KPMG.

Finished out the full period at EY before moving to midsize. I actually had to extend my notice period by a week after putting the notice to accommodate a client deadline lol

Hello, EAs! I work for a small PE Consulting firm where I have been the EA to the CEO, CAO and MDs for 4 years (15 YOE).

I’m transitioning into a more ops/HR function developing our HR dept (we currently use a PEO) from scratch and will have 3 EAs reporting to me. I will be heavily involved in recruiting, benefits, payroll, 401K, training, mentoring, morale & culture & moderately involved in biz dev and marketing.

What would be an appropriate title for this role?

Hi! I am currently in a Production Planner and Scheduler role for a large manufacturing company. I have been doing this for 3yrs and am interested in changing roles to Project Management function. I have been told by colleagues previously holding the PP&S position that PM is essentially what we do. So, i have applied to multiple PM roles at my company and have had 1 interview and 2 more interviews.

What should I emphasize in these upcoming interviews? How can I successfully pivot to PM? TIA❤

Feedback anyone!? I’m actively job hunting & one of the roles I applied to early on asked for compensation expectations as a mandatory field as you apply. Tbh I think it may have auto-populated from another application session. Fault of my own, I breezed through those generic prompts when applying. Question is, how much wiggle room do I realistically have from the original numb. I filled in vs. asking for much higher? Is there a way to come back from this?
