Anyone else ever had their religion, culture, or background questioned during an interview? I just had an odd encounter with RB.. definitely not thrilled nor willing to continue the process…

Can you expand a bit further…? I’ve definitely had questions asked on the region that would be considered “illegal” back home.

I had an interview canceled because I was told being born in Iraq disqualified me from getting a visa in Saudi (even though I'm a US citizen and have been in the US since I was 2).

Toronto banks: remote or not? They sometimes post jobs where it doesn’t say it’s remote, but no branch/ location/address either. Then you get an interview and they tell you it’s remote/hybrid(1-2-3days, take your pick)/on-site. So, if you work at TD, Scotia, RBC, could you let everybody know in the comments what’s the deal for each? Are you remote, on-site, hybrid of some sort?

Hey Mamas. I’m in the final interview stages for a new higher level job that would demand many more hours of my time including some nights and weekends. Right now I have a stable “9-5” job that allows me to be home in the evenings and on weekends spending time with my littles. They’re 3 and 1.

My concern is giving up time with them at such a young age for a great career opportunity. Would I regret missing the very young ages and should I wait to make career moves or should I go for it now?

I went through two rounds of interviews for
a job that the posting stated $36.66 per
hour (FP&A Analyst)…the company
recruiter had told me in the initial call the
pay could be 32-36 because of the other
benefits. If I do get a job offer what range
should I try for? I was really hoping to get
around the 36-40 but now I feel like they
may try to offer lower than what was
posted. Also there was no range but the
average for this position is upper 70s-90k.
Thanks for any help!

Feel like I was lied to when interviewing at my current agency. I was very honest how important work life balance is to me due to health issues.

I really wanted to make it work, but so can’t do this. I’m in Pharma PR, fwiw.

I was hired by a company that is paying me a ridiculous amount of money to do my job, but they lied to me, they lied to all of the new hires. This isn’t underwriting, this is a call center. We aren’t even allowed to answer coverage questions when the agents call. The call volume is INSANE - like 70+ calls a day. There’s no actual underwriting happening, and I don’t know what to do. The money is great, but the job is a joke. I’ve been here for 2 months and I want out. Advice?
