On Monday, I got an offer from #accenture for the: Consulting Development Program (CDP) - Consulting Analyst - Applied Intelligence. The offer is the standard - Not excellent, but I am pretty sure I will take it. Salary: 77k Sign on: 10k Start date Q2 - with a slight possibility for starting Q1 Here is the catch, I graduated in May this year and have been teaching myself new skills, figuring out what types of jobs I would want to take, and lots of networking. That being said I don't want to wait until June/July/August to start. I want to start working asap, I have already taken enough of a break. Is it possible to negotiate to increase my start date to Q1? It is the biggest sticking point to me sign-on. #consulting
Not sure but try it out, worst case scenario you will start in Q2.
Probably not. They are putting you in a class and want you to be trained with the rest of your class. I haven’t worked at acn in sometime though
You can try, but there is no guarantee. I started in CDP 2 years ago and I did the same. I was asked to start in November but was able to change my start day to August.
Which office? If you want, ask the recruiter for that. It depends on current headcount of the office location.
Its in the Atlanta office.
Honestly there is no hurt asking :) Do check with the recruiter!
