Refused to give up. I think I set a record for longest tenure at Senior Manager across multiple Big 4s at around 16 years before finally getting over the hump.

Grind and my mental health improved when I stopped caring about it. Just act like a partner and eventually they will want to bill you out as one. Acting indifferent was key for me

EY1 love it - tell me more

Sacrificed time with family & friends, spent 40+ weeks on the road for 8 years, put my clients and team first and it finally paid off🤪

Direct admit at current B4 after raising ranks from consultant to director at 2 other B4.

I was just informed after the third round of interviews they’d like at least 5 references, two must be supervisors. My last job was a temporary remote job where I didn’t really interact with my supervisor and the jobs before that were at my family’s business (I do not speak to any of them for serious personal reasons.) Anything before that was grad school and I haven’t kept in contact with any professors from over five years ago. What should I do? 😕
