Denied for a meta role, they said the panel liked me but I didn’t fit the role. I got redirected into another role with another recruiter and was asked to start over with that role. Anyone ever gotten a job like this? Feels like the runaround.

I’ve landed two roles like this - given a “no thanks, but you may be a fit for this other role.”

Both ended up being great moves. Don’t let a bruised ego get in the way of a good opportunity. You’ll forget about the rejection in no time flat if this other role ends up being a good fit!

Keeping my fingers crossed for you! Missing out on the role you were shooting for still stings of course, but this shows that the person or people you interviewed with still think you would bring value to their firm. Keep on pushing!

Meta is big gay

OP shouldn't feel bad he didn't make it into meta. Menas he's not big gay.

They wouldn't have redirected you if they didn't think you were a good fit for that job

Not atypical with Meta and other big tech for non technical roles

like

Yes, likely you will the HM screen + any cases + Panel

In a technical role (e.g., SWE) they usually let you keep your initial technical screening “pass” and either go straight to panel or another technical screen with HM team

Didn’t make it past panel myself but have friends in technical roles there who can confirm the above, but process is similar to what people go through at my current Tech company

I’m a second year associate and last night I was online until 2:30 AM waiting for one specialists comment to a purchase agreement. I had added all comments during the day from everyone else, and the midlevel and senior were online as well, but it seemed very strange to ask me to stay up just to add three sentences to a purchase agreement. Is this normal?

Hi fishies! Over the past 2.5 weeks I’ve had two interviews with an agency. I thought both interviews went really well, and they said the same.

Would you follow-up at all?

I feel super uncomfortable now because do I essentially lie to my boss because I’m not supposed to talk about it.
