Faced this weird behaviour from Optum recently. Gave interview for Data Scientist position. HR said feedback is positive. Asked for documents. It's been month now since I have shared the documents. I have no update on the offer. Today I called HR, she called me back saying the position is on hold due to recalibration in team, She has shared interview feedbacks to other teams and will get back to me in couple of days. I am clueless now. My last working day is approaching (In a month). Any Help??

Was scheduled for an interview today for a Director pos. early morning I get a Reschedule request to next Wednesday but I cannot make it due to personal commitment .
Called recuit mgr.to let him know and he tells me the director is very busy as she’s the IT. Dir for the whole org.politely asked him to send her availability other than next Haven’t received anything since then . Wondering if such co. Is worth pursuing that doesn’t value others time and that too a replacement pos for the same busy role 🥹

Bain & Company Bain & Company Do you have any insights into what they are expecting in the second (last) round? I saw that there are two cases and a presentation. Are they more interested in professionalism than the "analytical" skills assessed in the first round? Do you have any more insights into the presentation?
Many thanks in advance

Do well on the case study! Practice with others, get a good cross section on case. Be comfortable in structuring “on the fly” and communicating in a succinct manner.

For BCG, the interview shouldn’t depend on the practice unless you’re interviewing for an expert consultant position (and even then I’d still recommend preparing as if you’re interviewing for a generalist role). #1 thing that matters is case performance but make sure you have some good professional anecdotes prepared for the personal interview section as well.
Interviewed recently at BCG - you need both BCG1 is right like doing well on case and driving it but also behavioral- I felt like BCG really values the response to its few behaviorals also based on feedback I got from my R1
