What is it like being a contractor for Deloitte? May have an interview coming up but I’ve never done contracting before.

As a sub or prime? Doesn’t matter if it’s Deloitte but if you’re the former you get big donged and if the latter you do the donging

Like project delivery?

Unsure. The recruiter hasn’t really given me any details besides basic job requirements. I just know it’s for a PM role on the client site.

Don’t accept a Project Delivery role. You get 7 days after your project ends to find a new project. We just had to let several go.

That said, I just came from Booz last year after 10+ years, what makes you want to come over? Would be happy to chat about the pros/cons.

Ohh gotcha, well Deloitte is massive but it’s very fragmented, little to no centralization, even talent/HR don’t know what’s going on.

I’d characterize it as a place where if you’re not super motivated you’ll cycle out quick.

If you need a job, you need a job though, can take for a bit and see how it goes…

Should I just do federal and then refinance after working for a bit post-grad when I’m feeling more stable/secure in my finances/career?
