Got an interview for a job with a company I like but the original posting is now gone and I can’t remember the specifics to prep for the interview. Is it a bad look to ask for the job description?

No, it’s ok to ask for one and say you want to prepare to highlight your experience as most relevant to the job description. Also important for you- I’ve messed up interviews before because I didn’t have a job description and thus didn’t know how I was being evaluated.

Beware folks, There is an unprofessional lady HR in axtria
1. Will proceed for interview even if expected CTC is over budget just to waste your’s & interviewer’s time
2. Won’t inform you even if you are selected by the hiring panel in case any candidate currently being interviewed has a lower CTC ask & makes promises without being aware of what she can get on paper just to give lame reasons post 4-5 rounds of interview.

Anyone here who has rescheduled several times their visa interview appointment w/ embassy outside US. Allowed to schedule twice w/o penalty. On the 3rd time, it needs to be cancelled. Does yours say to wait 90 days to rebook and were you able to book immediately on the 91st day? Just wanted to know what you’ve went through ie, if there are other requirement needed when you cancel and then use the MRV fee.

I’m currently at a medium sized tech startup. I was interviewing for a role that would be a bump in pay and title at a multinational public F50 company. At first, the hiring manager and head of legal were very complementary about my experience. Almost too much so. After a week of interviews with the team (softball-esq), I was informed that if I wanted to join, they would bring me on at a lower title. I’m not sure about comp yet. But if comp is still an increase + experience at a public..

So I had an interview with a company (3 rounds actually) which went pretty well. I even rearranged my schedule for last minute interviews because it’s the job that I really want. My recruiter said that they all love me & even wanted me to speak to the CEO. Then they needed a few days to speak with another candidate. After a few days, I was told that they needed another day because the other candidate couldn’t interview with the department lead. I’m really worried now. How should I take this?

Are there any pros to staying at a company and getting laid off, vs. proactively looking for a new job and quitting before it happens?
