I just got an email from a recruiter from Google!
Omgomgomgomg
He said that the position is in the Bay Area or New York. I haven’t replied the email. I don’t think we can move to those cities, but I don’t want to lose this opportunity. Does anyone know if Google does remote jobs within US?
Anyone here in IB restructuring willing to share tips and good resources to use to prep for an upcoming interview? I don’t have IB/finance experience but took a modelling course on wallstreetprep. Also, I am planning on studying the HL case study and read the interview guides on restructuringinterviews.com. Lastly, If you can share what the interview was like for you, that would be appreciated. TIA
How does @Dentsu India interview process works? I had a total of 5 rounds After first 2 they said they are ok with me but they think I am more suitable for 2 other roles,if I want any of them they will redirect. Then I chose the second JD, i had 2 more rounds of interviews and they said they are happy with me and let the HR do their formalities. But after 3 days when I called HR, i was told they are having few more interviews with other candidates and will confirm me! Dentsu Creative

How do you all feel that NFL spot landed?
Would love to hear about your gardening leave experience, especially in the event production sector, i.e. Gartner, Forrester, etc. I’m planning my resignation and I’m unsure if I should plan my next endeavor around it. I plan to continue my career in event production but as an in-house producer for a solution provider, any advice would be greatly appreciated!

If it’s at another firm, then 95% chance they’re just trying to match you with an opportunity that’s open to everyone.
Thank you!!
Did they specify it was for a law firm? Very rarely are recruiters specifically contracted for an associate role at a firm. We have many meetings with partners at firms for specific needs for their teams so it might be something like that. If they are reaching out about an In house role that is definitely based on a contract with the company to hire. In that case a recruiter will be sending them multiple candidates and tend to rate them to the company in terms of who has the best experience, cultural fit for the role. Recruiters can also have great relationships with partners who will rely on a recruiter’s judgment in deciding to meet an associate but for the most part at law firms recruiters send candidates to the recruiting teams at firms and whether to interview is decided internally but how a recruiter helps present you (whether it’s making your resume the best it can be, highlighting specific traits about your experience that will pique interest) can be very important to the process. Sorry long response but in general if you have the time and are generally interested in considering opportunities from time to time, talk to recruiters when they reach out. You never know and you typically will get the sense when they are genuine. There are great recruiters out there.
In my experience there are different kinds of jobs we fill: (1) exclusives, where the law firm only works with us to fill a position or positions, (2) unpublished positions, where the law firm recruiter or partner contacts us to let us know they have a need to fill (although not exclusive), (3) published openings that the law firm will reach out to us about asking for us to help them fill, (4) published openings, (5) opportunistic searches, where we ask a firm if they have a need for a certain candidate (keeping identifying info confidential).
