So dumb last thing I want to do during busy season is drink after work with the people I've been locked in a room with for 70+ hours a week

Don't miss too many happy hours. Don't have to drink but it's worth it. Don't study for the CPA exam during season. It takes you six months. You can easily do two a quarter. If not, there's four quarters outside of season.

At least the fact that they wanted you to join for happy hour says something. Probably giving you a hard time in good fun.

Hi everyone, would like to know the Bowl's thoughts on this:
I am a recent MBA graduate who has joined one of the cloud computing firms. It's all good. Loving the new job. But I would eventually want to make a move to Google. I am a project manager and would like to know the opportunities at Google for me in the future. What skills should I have? What roles should I look out for and when would it be best to switch?

Looking to take the CISA exam. I have over 5 years of audit experience. How long do you think it’d take to study? Also, what study material should I use? Any good boot camps you’d recommend?

Are most T25 post-MBA hires at Deloitte consulting going into S&A? Or do they typically end up in another consulting arm?

Curious to know what you've seen as working to non working dollars split in Canadian agencies. Reference any specific brands (or categories) if you can. I'm used to seeing the conventional 15-20% split for non working (production dollars only, not including media budget, agency fees) but are those days gone now with the takeover of digital (vs traditional) ad placements?
