Recently joined a project that’s been in flight for long time. Onboarding hasn’t been great, not sure who my Point of contact is, where we are in the process (since they started such a long time ago and the SoW is outdated by at least 2 years), what the objectives are for this phase of work. Manager sort of just says things that suggests I should know, which deters me from asking Qs. They recently came across as a bit annoyed when I’d ask a few Qs. Not sure if they fee the onboarding decks…tbc

I joined in Accenture as level 8. Prior to joining, I was apporached by a project, and they seemed to not convince with my lack of knowledge about the role hence they dropped me even after contacting couple of times. Now I have got call from another one and they also seem to be not fully sure because my last role was very different. My question is how difficult is it to get a project in Accenture? Will this interviews continue? Also, what are the chances of me getting a suitable role?

I work in an internal strategy group at Deloitte in the part of our business we refer to as “enabling areas”. We “borrow” people all the time from Deloitte’s Consulting practice (e.g., on short or longer term rotations paying an internal hourly rate to Consulting) to support our internal strategy projects, and I know other internal teams do this too. Do the internal teams do this at PwC? Hubby is on the bench at Strategy& and I keep telling him to look into this as an option…
