Finished final rebound interviews for an industry position last week. Went OK but didn't think I got it. Recruiter emails me today and says she wants to get my feedback and level of interest

What does that mean? If I say I'm very interested will they try to low ball me if I got the position? First time switching jobs out of undergrad

If you don't express interest then you won't get any offer. Best to get some figures and negotiate properly.

No, be honest with them and if they ask you your price, name it. If the position isn't offering your price, move along. https://www-forbes-com.cdn.ampproject.org/c/s/www.forbes.com/sites/lizryan/2017/05/14/five-good-answers-to-what-are-you-earning-now/amp/

Industry?

Seems like a weird way of saying I'm getting the offer though... or not. Trying to be prepared for how the conversation will go

Be honest. They could have been impressed with you and are considering you for something else at the company if this first position does not work out. If you are shortly out of undergrad you probably are not super specialized and thus lots of departments might be interested if the first one takes a pass.

If they don't think you're that interested they might not even extend an offer to you. Why would you hire something that is a higher flight risk?

I almost had a role, they asked for my feedback, told them I loved the company. They said they would be in touch. About a week later I got a conference call from the hiring manager and another VP. They said they couldn't offer me the original position, but wanted to talk to me about something else in a different part of the company. I passed and found out about a month later why I didn't get the first one; the company announced they were restructuring and made the decision to divest that business.

Told them I was very interested and they set up a call for Friday. I guess we will see

I recently had an interview with HCL and cleared 2 rounds of technical interview. I waited for a week for HR call but no such call was received.

This was 1 week ago and I have still not received any call. Has anyone else faced the same issue? And if yes, should I even expect a call fro HR?

It’s been really hard to keep my head up after what feels like endless rejection. Received a no today about position I really wanted. The interviews felt so genuine and I was even told I’d be a good fit. Ultimately it just seems that my experience isn’t translating, which really sucks when you feel stuck in your current role and want to make a transition. I’m so eager to keep learning. Would love to connect with any brand/account directors to get some advice.

1. What is your weakness? I can talk at length about strengths but unclear what weakness to state so as to not mess up my chances.

2. Where do you see yourself in 5 years? This question is tough because there aren't very many levels above me so cannot say in an EVP role.
