Trying to gauge the meaning of response from PPED round. Was interviewing for a position in one of the big 4 and the principal in the PPED round mentioned at the end of the call “ I will have my recruiter reach out to you and discuss the next steps”. What does this mean? is it a good sign or not? Any idea folks?

Do you think us big4 ppl have code words that only we know about?

If you have to think about whether there are code words, you ain’t big 4!

It’s the most generic “this convo is over and you’ll hear from the recruiter on the outcome” response ever. It could be good or bad we have no idea.

Lol, yes, I’ve not made it once I reached the PPMD round

The interviewers are going to provide collective feedback and they’ll make a decision to extend an offer or not. The recruiter will let you know either way. Don’t look at it as a positive or a negative.

OP just looking for some reassurance in these stressful times 😂.

Sit tight OP. I’m sure you gave it your best. What will be, will be.

Hi Fishes
I have an interview this week for Investment Strategy and Research - Senior Specialist.

Need suggestions for interview preparations.

I have an interview with Korn Ferry for an associate principal role and am curious about others’ experiences have been with work-life balance here. Also, I have an idea of what I should be compensated in this type of role, but any insights on how they pay compared to others would be helpful. Are you traveling during the pandemic or have client interactions been virtual? Lastly, if you are a consultant here, are you on billable hours? My current consulting role is not - so this would be new.
