Why are Accenture / Deloitte /possibly others ghosting applicants right now? No outreach or even rejection communication.

Accenture has a lot of people on the bench right now. They aren’t going to hire new people if they have unstaffed people already here. They also were in the process of “managing out” people who were identified as the bottom 5-10% of performers. This was a yearly thing before the pandemic and they resumed it from my understanding. This is just not a great time to be looking for a job tbh.

Have you turned on the news in the past 3 months?

Word on the street is layoffs at Accenture, though I don’t know. I went through the Accenture Federal recruiting process, recommended by a manager, made it final interviews, the interviewer told me he was recommending me to be hired, only to get ghosted for a week and then sent a rejection letter.

Biased example but it seems like hiring has largely slowed

Yes Accenture is reducing workforce.

Adjust your expectations… if I receive any communication about a job I applied for I consider it a success.

How do you deal with an HR that ghosts you after 3 interviews that went really well? I landed an offer at Deloitte as a sr. consultant, and then negotiated for a managerial role. I was told all interviewers were really happy with me so she would be glad to arrange a reevaluation for the new role(I was interviewed by 2 Sr. Managers & an MD for Sr. Consultant role and will have to take another round with a partner for the managerial position). I tried following up thrice after, no response.

Working on some law firm applications tonight and it sucks that I know that I am so capable and have a strong work ethic but firms can’t see beyond grades or the fact that I didn’t go to a t14 law school or prestigious undergrad.
