Does anyone know anything about the Deloitte CORE Leadership Program for veterans/active duty military transitioning? Someone I know is attending, and wonder if he could get an offer from this?

Didn’t get promoted and thinking of leaving Deloitte for the next level at Guidehouse. It’s a title bump so I would get a raise, but I’m trying to weigh the opportunity cost of going to a “lower tier” firm known for more niche services. Has anyone else been in this situation and what did you choose? Would this limit my exit opps?
My patience for this job is waning… I’m 35, single, no debt - Made some decent investments last year in some AI chip stocks and now they’re coming to roost.. my brokerage account is now more than my 401k. I feel like my life is 90% work and 10% everything else. I wonder if I should take some extended time off (6mo-1yr) as I would love to actually have space for things during the week again and explore / grow in other areas of my life. Is it time?
I went to the inaugural session of this a few years ago. It was a great program but they seemed to purposely avoid it becoming a recruiting event. This may have changed but I wouldn’t expect to be recruited. It is an awesome network builder though and you never know what will come out of that.
The one thing I would stress above all else is to spend every second networking. To be honest my network with my fellow attendees has been way more valuable than the Deloitte staff. They were all high performing people that have gone on to careers in a wide range of positions and industries. Also, don’t get too wild at The Barn.
I attended in the third ever session. They are very straight forward about it not being a recruiting event. I ended up with an offer months later but it wasn't from that. I still had to interview.
Thanks so much for sharing! Good to know and I will pass that along.
OP, might be a good thing to put on the resume tho :)
The target is 15% of attendees get offers. It’s a great program
