Do you guys ever just tell recruiters that the process is taking too long and withdraw your application? This guy made contact with me 2 weeks ago, said he’d get an interview set up with internal HR, then ghosted me, then appeared out of nowhere and told me I had a call with internal HR the next. There’s 4 more steps after this. It’s just too much. I know that’s a normal timeline, but the point is it just takes too long now.

Yes, I've done this. Especially in a situation like this, where I feel the recruiter is unprofessional and disrespectful of my time.

Ah, sick! Now they have sent me an email to set up multiple times, where i can take a one hour video interview, and they’ll “coordinate with our team”. I can’t imagine doing this another 4 times…

Hi all, I’m looking to switch into Strategic Finance at a tech company and was looking to chat with someone in a similar role. I have total 4 yoe, the last 3 being in a quant role at a major valuation firm.

Finding it tough to get interviews so looking to connect with people in these roles. Thanks!

Anyone else notice a trend with the mass amounts of layoffs in tech? Why are all their resumes so jumpy? Not like 2-5 years jumpy, like few months at a time jumpy? But still can land a position with similar tech giants? IMO, lots of these people get hired by their rich friends, stay a few months before someone realized they aren’t qualified and were just a recommendation from a current employee. Then repeat that process over and over until your company is down 50%

Hi Fishes,
I recently got shortlisted for a Product Manager position at Tracxn. There’s also an IPO coming up which is the reason I had applied.
But I have read some horrifying reviews about the company on Glassdoor, indeed and other forums.

I’m wondering whether it’s worth going through the interview process and I’d also like to hear opinions from anyone who has worked with the company or is aware of the company culture.

Thanks.

Personally, I like posts like this one a lot because:
- it forces companies to admit, you were never out to “hire the best”
- long-term loyalty to a company is completely overrated
- it’s finally “cool” to have hard skills and focus on being really good at them
