Trying to jump ship to another B4 (more money, sr role) - interviews went great, HR told me they're working on an offer. One month later - nothing. What gives?

OP, same as ours, but they just got comp info. Just be patient. Sounds like you are in!!

Also keep in mind how the firms are performing fiscally right now, everyone I have talked to (Big 4 and outside) makes it clear hearing back or getting an offer could take time. They don't want to bring someone in if it'll fuck you both over.

Easily. When they want you, they WANT you. Could be timing. Circle back in 6 months.

I assume for Deloitte?

OP, could be a lot of factors. When I applied to EY, it took 3 months to get my offer because they didn't have a job posting, ppl were on vacation, etc. PwC got me an interview within a month and an offer within a week.

I heard back pretty quickly but my start date was set SEVEN WEEKS after I accepted.

Same shit happened to me.

@Op, expect a bunch of ppl leaving around Oct, so your joining will prob be around late October

@EY2 why October?

Bonuses are paid out either in mid sept or early oct. nobody wants to leave without getting their dues, unless other firm puts up a big signing bonus

I talked to a recruiter from Deloitte who sounded very interested and excited about my prospects and a month later I've heard nothing

I have an offer to do some consulting for a company based out of the UK (I am in the US). The job would not go through a consulting company but would be directly with the company. I have not done any consulting before so I am not sure how it works, what I would need to set up (they mentioned that I would start a LLC and bill them directly, no idea how to do that), how to determine the tax implications of this, or what hourly rate I would expect. Can anyone offer advice?

Has anyone gone from a federal gov’t employee to private industry? I’m considering making the swap for better pay, I make decent money where I’m at and I know I have job security. Just trying to see if there is anyone else that was bold enough to make the leap.
