Interning at EY, got offer to interview for Parthenon, but I lose my guaranteed return offer. Good idea?
Hi guys I am currently interning at EY and after much networking was offered to interview for Growth Strategy at Parthenon. However, if I choose to interview, I lose my return offer for EY (guaranteed) even if I fail. Good idea?
A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush. These are not the times to be taking risks unless you are a hedge fund manager.
The thing is... I didn't really like my time doing non-strategy work, it was kinda boring. Does it change things if I'm a soph going into junior year?
That does change things. If you do not depend on your income and are still in school then yeah do whatever you want. That's the point.
What I would do in your situation is this, apply for other companies, if you get offers from companies that you are happy with then interview with parthenon. Otherwise if you dont then personally I would not risk it. Tbh the fact that they are putting you in the position is unusual
I worked in consulting and transferred into Parthenon...I would interview. I've witnessed multiple people re-interview for other service lines and office locations and haven't heard of somebody getting denied
There will be a massive difference between consulting and Parthenon, you got lucky to have the opportunity to transfer so I would take it
Op did u get the interview during the internship?
Yeah, had to network my ass off tho
