Good point. But opinions vary and everybody's experience is different. For me personally, 2 weeks meant ALOT.
It meant I WOULD have been able to upgrade and get 1000 PIC. Mind you, it would have been as a junior CA on reserve the whole time. But it would have taken the career path in a completely different direction. Instead, that two weeks meant I got to downgrade before finishing upgrade.
When the furloughs came, guess what? My class got the furloughed notice, and it was the most senior of the classes to get them. The guys ahead of me got to keep their jobs ALOT longer. Bear in mind, I took the first class that was offered to me at that company. But had I been hired a class prior, it would be a totally different game.
But whatever, YOUR experience may be different and YOUR mileage may vary.
Sorry to disagree. You can say that regional senority is not that big of a deal. In my experience, it would have been.
