Can I still pass a McK final round interview if the senior partner kept asking “what else” in my brainstorm until I got to a missing idea?

Probably not but they’re hiring like crazy

They might not be looking for a missing idea - could just be seeing how you perform under pressure

Probably that too. There was definitely a cost side idea I was missing that he had to give me a hint to get 😩

Hi, ladies. How long has it taken you to find a new job?

I’m currently on the hunt for a new job and I’m feeling really utterly defeated. Over the past year I’ve probably applied to at least 100 jobs and I’ve been on 8 different interviews all with no offer. I’m not sure if I’m doing anything wrong or if there is more being done behind the scenes that have nothing to do with me. Either way, I’m getting frustrated and my productivity in my current position is slacking as a result.

What type of interview will be there for 2.5 year experienced candidate from Data engineering domain to Tableau/Snowflake.
Will they take it as general or specific to our work experience/primary skill.

Product Design Engineer, interviewing at Apple (Cupertino) and at Meta (Seattle/Redmond). Not at the offer stage yet, but I'm contemplating where I would relocate with family.
No idea about team/culture/stability differences yet.

The non-work factors I'm debating are:
1. Cost-of-living (housing!). Could probably afford a nice ~$1.25M SFH in Seattle suburbs sooner than a fair $1.5-2M near Cupertino.
2. Public School quality. Unsure private will be affordable.
3. Weather/region: activities

Someone in a meeting this morning suggested we use bffr and said it means "best friend for real." Like at least research the term before you try to use it.
