Got to the final round interview for roles at Google and LinkedIn but failed both. Anyone else struggling to get past final rounds due to the fact that consulting analysts are pretty much generalists and not specialized in anything? :/

I wouldn’t call it a failure - you made it all the way to the final with barely any experience so you obviously have something of interest or are great at interviewing! Hang in there and keep at it, make sure the roles match your loe so your not losing out to people with more experience.

What roles were you interviewing for? How many YOE?

JPM1 - nope, I only have a BA and a 2020 grad. For LinkedIn I was reached out by recruiter via LinkedIn and for google i applied on their website without referral. I spend a lot of time writing my resume though

Hello everyone !
I just graduated and I have made it pass the third interview which was a two part working interview that I will receive compensation for. I have BS degree in healthcare professions and wanted to know if 40k is too low of salary to start off as a compliance officer for a pharmacy that provides discounted medications. My first 3 months will be training for my position but I will be paid the same. The job hasn’t offered me a dollar amount yet and I want to be best prepared.

Hi Guys,

I have completed my tech interview rounds with UBS and have received email for fitment round.

Can anyone share what happens in this fitment round on interview?
HRs have asked to submit documents even before this fitment round; which seems unusual. Is this normal for UBS and this is how they progress?

Thank you.

What would be a typical salary for a junior in house counsel role (3 yoe) at a publicly traded company in a secondary market (think Austin, Tampa, Charlotte)? I’m having a really hard time finding what a reasonable range would be. Most positions I’m applying to require desired salary in the application, and the truth is I’d accept anything north of 125k but don’t want to undersell myself and take a bigger cut than necessary coming from biglaw.

I was hoping to get some thoughts on this from others? Thanks
