Bain & Company Guys feel free to chip in.
I have a SSB interview comming up soon. Will need 4 days leave.
Should I state the reason as it is and will it be considered? Or is an excuse a better way to get a leave, because I surely don't want to be missing out on this chance.

Have I been ghosted or is there still hope? Does anyone at Visa have insights? Looks like there are a ton of jobs posted so maybe they are just backed up?

Hello Fishes
I have 20 days left in my notice period and I would like to know or get advised on how many days prior to joining date/led should I finalize the company from among the offers and what is a respectful time to intimate other companies that I will not be able to join their company.

Of course exceptions like last minute opportunity with a good firm or offer revision is there but in general what should be a corporate appropriate timeline.

Thanks in advance for the valuable suggestions.
