A consulting firm reached out to me last week...57 weeks after I interviewed, asking me to have a 6th and final round with the head of a practice. Fifty seven weeks after. When I asked what role this was for considering it’s been...errr... over one year(!!) since we communicated - the internal recruiter gave me the “per my last email”. Dudes last email was 390+ days ago to me... 🥴. If they gave me an offer I’d still leave because Capco is an utter joke.

Fake it til ya make it.

6 rounds and 57 weeks later?! Capco must be hell on earth for you to consider that!!

As an aside, I feel like very few reputable companies require more than three rounds. If you can’t figure out whether someone’s a fit by then, you’re either doing something wrong or, more likely, an a**hole.
