What's the current job market like over in Texas? Having to relocate there before the end of the year because my partner's job requires them to be stationed there, so just trying to get the feelers out for how screwed I am for when it comes to my job search

Texas is massive. Have a smaller area you want to focus on?

Are we talking Fort Hood (can’t think of the new name offhand). Camp Mabry, NAS JRB or Lackland? Or some other base I can’t think of off the top of my head?

Texas is a pretty big place. Overall job market seems strong. My partner and I looked to relocate there about a year ago, but he got an offer somewhere.

Hi all,

Do firms match offers from other Big 4s for campus hires? I’ve received a campus offer from both
KPMG and EY. I’m more interested in the EY offer, but they are paying 3k less than KPMG.

Would it be a bad move to let them know about the other offer and try negotiating? I feel it wont make a difference in the long run, but at the same time I don’t want to leave any money on the table if possible.

Thanks!
