Do companies typically blacklist you if you received an offer and rejected it? For example, let’s say you were interviewing for Microsoft and during the final interview you didn’t like what you heard. They give you an offer and you reject it. However, there are still other roles at the company you would like to interview for.

Yes, some do but probably more specific to the specific recruiter or hiring manager.

This is a good point... a company like Microsoft has many different recruiters throughout the company. Could probably apply for a position in a different department and they would never know

I turned down an offer at Deloitte and subsequently got a much better offer 3years later that I took; worked out well for me!

No, of course not. People turn down offers all the time for all sorts of reasons. Just state your reasons, thank the recruiter and hiring manager for the opportunity, and you’re fine. Especially in a massive company like Microsoft.

We don’t usually, though as stated above it is down to the folks hiring. I wouldn’t think it to be a policy at any larger organization.

I was blacklisted for turning an offer down and confirmed by others in the company.

When BigLaw attorneys interview students, how soon afterward do they give feedback? What kind of feedback do you give as an interviewer at your firm (e.g. qualitative, quantitative, thumbs up, thumbs down, veto)? Does everyone get in a room or do you just submit the forms to one hiring partner, and/or to a black box? If you don't click with the student, what would make you still give them a thumbs up? Sorry if my questions are a little neurotic... !

I recently had an initial interview for a technical recruiter position. The guy on the phone stated that this is not a 9-5 job and long hours are expected. I proceed to ask how much PTO is offered and he said that is not recommend within the first 6 months of working and the harder you work the more PTO you receive. From that conversation, I saw instant red flags. Any thoughts?
