Anyone interview for google’s risk and compliance role? What’s the interview process like? Any tips?

Just had a first round interview and got selected for the next round. They had asked me during the interview how much I would like to be making and I had said 65-70k. Later, my coworker said that was definitely under what I should have asked for and should have asked for 70-80k. Is it unprofessional to say 70-80k in my next interview if I am asked again? I feel like I messed up and don’t know what to do.

Strong consulting background at H/S. Applied for MBB NYC internship and got only 1 interview invite (failed to convert final round). Both career center and ex-MBB classmates are shocked. Any insights why others got more interviews than me?

Over the last year I’ve had 4 separate interview cycles where after the final round I’ve gotten “you had all strong feedback but the team went with the other candidate.” It’s really insulting to hear these companies say that there isn’t enough qualified black candidates but have your own experience show you that you can do everything right but still you don’t get the offer due to not looking the part I guess

Hello All,

I’ve been applying for jobs now for a few months, and haven’t had much luck so far… feels like even if I get (promising) calls back from HR/Recruiters the timeframe for the call back is so long that I have no idea anymore if I’m even being considered.

I’m a consultant in Technology transformation & I’ve lead several consulting & developer teams both as a consultant & a solutions architect. I feel though as I’m reaching a wall with my career progression and would like help with this.

I have given my interview and the recruiter collected my documents, pay slips expected ctc etc. It has been 2 weeks already and my recruiter told me they're waiting for Oracle approval. How long does it generally take? Do they reject these approval requests often? Anybody attended interview in July or August have received offer letter?

Hi I heard even after clearing the interview and join sapient, we need to attend client round and that much tougher than sapient interview. Is it true?

Hi fishes,

I had actually applied through a referral to Deliotte for Fx settlemets position. I got a call from Hr asking for CTC and notice period. Haven’t heard back since 2 weeks. Does it take long for them to schedule a interview or what could be the case?

I have given an interview in one company and maybe I will have a positive response and the second round may be scheduled .

Today I got a call from the same company and that HR said ur resume is shortlisted and your round is scheduled .but this interview is for a different position .

Is it fine if I give this interview too .

Did Slalom ever have a covid vaccination policy in place, like a condition of employment? Thank you.

Currently, I am working in TCS and the company conducted an internal Interview and I cleared that. My role has upgraded and along with that my salary got doubled(2X). But in my payroll it's added under "Payroll Incentive" and my basic pay remains the same. Now if other companies ask for the current CTC can I add "payroll incentive" also or should I say my old salary?

My wife is pregnant in her last few months and I feel is facing harassment at work.

One of the managers/directors is constantly talking her about her pregnancy and trying to convince her that she cannot work for 40 hours. If she works and overdelivers on her client project, he constantly forces her to write emails, she is not feeling comfortable sending. He micromanages and keeps challenging her on time she is charging. I think he has utilization pressure for his team and trying to ... (1/n)

Can you request to a partner to not work with a particularly difficult client? Client requested “male” attorney sign my work and has been borderline verbally abusive

Has it been difficult getting approved for a mortgage with law school loans? My partner and I are both in Biglaw, but graduated in 2020 during the loan interest freeze and haven’t started paying any of our loans. We both have credit scores of 790+ and make around $450K total. We are nervous about home buying due to each of us having $100k in student loans.

Billing question - if you have to travel and stay overnight for a client, do you bill ALL the time you are gone from home? Only the hours working? Everything except sleep? The scenario hasn’t come up with my firm before and the partners aren’t sure.

I made a mistake of leaving a firm I really liked and I’m not sure if I will ever be happy at another firm.
