You have nothing to think about until you have an offer. Don’t stress about what you don’t have yet. You’ll have plenty of time to think about it once you have an offer in front of you

Keep your mind occupied!

Assume I didn’t get it and move on to the next thing. If I hear back, that’s a nice surprise.

Day trade. I like to live in the edge.

I interviewed for Data Analyst role at EY, it went well and the job sounds great, but I'm a bit hesitant to leave PwC because I really like the firm and I'm just 8 months in my job as an associate at a subgroup of ITS that has some focus on technology and analytics but it's mostly tax compliance.

I do want to transition to data analytics but I'm not sure if it's a good idea to go to another big 4, or maybe just look for a position in industry.

Any advice or similar experience?
