Hi!

Lots of great questions. 

Happy to take them one by one, but I'd strongly recommend you use these questions rather as a networking tool. Basically, identify current RB consultants in Riyadh who are at a similar seniority level as the one that you're going for. Not only will they give you a granular understanding of how this works for Riyadh, but they might even offer you a referral. 

Here's how to do it:

From my perspective, RB is a great place to work at. Within ME, in some countries RB has even higher compensation that MBB. They're also growing a lot at the moment, especially in terms of digital - fyi, just recently coached a candidate who was transitioning from Big4 to RB within the region. Re promotions, they're a bit slower than MBB from what I know. 

Good luck!
Cristian

Hi there,

First of all, if you're deciding whether you want to work for them or not…wait for the offer! You might decide you want them only to be rejected - focus on things that are actually in your control.

When/if you get the offer, reflect on whether it's right for you.

Also remember that interviews are not a one-way street: you can talk to the interviewer about the firm itself.

Finally, network! These questions are perfect for networking and much better explained via spoken, not written words.

Overall RB has competitive pricing but is not a top brand in the ME. Projects are going to depends specifically on region/office.

Hi,

For the salary data it's more efficient to use Glassdoor.

For promotions and other in-house issues it's more efficient to reach out to the company's employees directly.

Good luck!
