I have revived a great offer from an employer and I am still in the process with another employee and it sounds very promising that I will receive another offer.
In this case should I let the second employer know about the first offer? And if so how should I approach that topic in an interview ?

Does anyone have experience doing a capital markets case study as part of the interview process?

Looking to begin a career in Financial or Business Analytics. I am an Economics major that graduated in Dec 2020. Since then I have been an Operations Analyst at a FinTech company. I also have some past experience as an analyst at a small business lending company in college. I have been applying for jobs for the past ~6 months. I have made it to the final round of a few interviews, but have not received any offers. Does anyone have any advice for me? I would greatly appreciate any insight.

Hi all, currently interviewing for a position with Lazard Asset Management (LAM). Was curious if any fish in this bowl have experience with their interview process. Thanks!

I interviewed with a company about a month ago (internal recruiter call and one call with management) and did not receive an offer. Since then I saw another posting for another location but it’s the same recruiter. We emailed back and forth and he scheduled a call with him before he schedules the management ones. Should I bring up that we’ve done this before?

Hi, I recently received a job offer of 100k that said their base cap was 95k, should I or can I counteroffer, if so to what would be reasonable?

Do not have a personal computer so have been using my work computer for new job search activities like updating my resume and sending networking emails (using my personal email). When it comes to scheduling zoom interviews, do I just take them on my company laptop?

So I am interviewing for a job, and they told me the range for the position is 95k to 160k and said the hiring manager would like to offer me around 125k, does that mean I should negotiate for the higher end?

Interviewing with a startup and they’d like me to do a presentation on some of the financial processes I am working/ worked on. What is the best way to present this info that I usually do in excel? Would a PowerPoint deck be the best approach with the info or a google Sheet?

Interviewed for a role last Friday, and at the end, the hiring manager told me they’re interviewing a couple more people and will let me know by early next week.

It’s Tuesday, and I haven’t heard back. Am I being paranoid or did I not get the job? Feels like they’d have let me know either way by now…

How do you emphasize the importance of work-life balance in your job search/ in interviews without coming off as not being a hard worker? Also, how can you tell if a company actually has a culture that supports work-life balance?

This company keeps changing the interview date, is this a red flag? I’m interviewing at a Tech company, and the comp is 6 figures, bonus + equity, unlimited pto and all that good stuff. I made it to the final “presentation/case-study” round of interviews. It was supposed to be this morning, but i got an email stating that its been moved to this Friday. Ok no problem. Got another email a couple minutes ago saying its been moved again to next Thursday. Very frustrating, is this a red flag?

How to ask about work/life balance during a job interview?

Interviewing for a senior FP&A analyst position. What types of questions will they ask for the technical portion?

Is there a “professional” way to let recruiter know along with the company to have the courtesy to inform someone who has gone through the interview process with eight people to at least send a note informing them of the outcome? One can figure out that they are not interested in hiring you if they haven’t contacted you after the final round with an offer, but the company/recruiter should have the courtesy to let you know. Thoughts?

I have an upcoming technical interview on the P&L. What are some questions that I can expect to get? I have not interviewed in years so i am a bit rusty. Any advice would be appreciated!

Need to call the recruiter to discuss salary expectations for the role I’m interviewing for. Any tips on how to handle this? Should I ask them to provide the range first and don’t call out the number in my mind yet? If they insist I say it first, do I give the top margin (instead of a range)? How to negotiate from there?

In the middle of interviewing for a role externally right now. Would other firms generally expect you to start after we get bonus? Even if I get the offer in mid-Nov…this means I won’t be able to start at a new firm until mid-Feb (given 30 day garden leave after bonus and resignation). Is that a usual/ok timeline?

I was supposed to have an interview today but I received an email a few days ago thanking me for applying with them but they had filled the position. Didn’t think anything of it until I got a call from the company today asking where I was, I told them about the email and they said the position was not filled and it must have been an error. Curious on others thoughts - should I have emailed the hr person confirming the interview was cancelled? I’m not really one to question a ‘no thanks’ email
