Multiple Big 4 Offers - is it possible to negotiate?
I am currently an Undergraduate student and have received an offer for an Assurance traineeship and an internship for Transactions - however, these offers are from different big 4 firms.
Finance is ultimately where I want to work in, so I really want to take up the internship. However, the traineeship is full time for 2 years and they hint at a strong chance for a grad role. I have already accepted the trainee offer because the interview invite and offer for transactions only occurred after the trainee offer, and I had to respond in a period of time.
-is it possible to ask my trainee employer to provide me a chance to do the internship at the other firm? It does seem like a bad look though (despite it being the area I really want to do). If so, how should I ask them? And would asking the HR team about this be appropriate?
-should I forfeit my traineeship and go for the internship? Or stick with it and try to move laterally.
Also, I've been a long-time lurker and just wanted to say that this forum has been huge for my career as a student. Thank you guys.
You should reneg on Assurance and take the Transactions offer. I wouldn't even think twice.
You shouldn't give a fuck about looking bad. You're in school to get the best job possible.
It would just means that you know what you like and that you want to do it, so I suggest u to switch asap also becauseTransaction is so much a better opportunity
