As a person who referred someone, can I post a feedback to the recruiter for the bad experience my friend had to go through with this super rude SM? What impression are we setting for people who apply to our firm? Appreciate any response from EY partners/SM. Is it worth giving a feedback!? Who let such people do interviews. So agitated

Exactly the doubt my friend has. He wouldn’t want to report to such Managers.

I had a similar experience with a desi partner at Deloitte. Still got the offer and basically just used it as leverage to get a higher offer elsewhere. But by far worst interview experience I’ve ever had
