Nothing too much exhilirating here in terms of information but Andersen Consulting is REALLY trying hard to move into e-business. This is definitley a GOOD move for AC. To address the person's question as to which branch of the firm to apply to for an e-position. I'd say that most of the BIG 5 is probably trying to jump on the band wagon of E-commerce training. At AC they are now teaching all new college kids the importance of net-centric business models, JAVA, and HTML. Just to let you know... |

I have been following this line of inquiry and thought, perhaps, now's the time to add my two cents. Perhaps I will appear biased or self-serving. Not intentianal, let me assure you. I am a recruiter, retained by a Big Five, to fill about twenty positions in their tax consulting practice. I would agree with the previous observer: if you are looking to break into the Big Five, it is easiest if you can connect with the headhunter doing the searches. Forget trying to get in by way of the mail, snail or otherwise. It is the headhunter who is - for the most part - the gatekeeper on these opportunites.
