Had an interview with EY. At the interview they were 'we are impressed with you, you're a great fit & want to move forward' Get an email from the recruiter 'don't want to move forward' WTF😡

EY ghosted me during college recruiting. Year later, I switched from PwC and the EY recruiter was really good. Had an offer in hand in 3 weeks from first convo. I think it just depends on the recruiter.

EY recruiter’s act like they are doing you a favour. I think they would have a hard time recruiting great talent because of their attitude. I would just move on OP, they make empty promises.

I was ghosted by EY in college also. They gave me the office interview then called a day later and rescinded. Very unprofessional imo

I had a bad experience with the EY recruiter as well. She questioned why my undergraduate GPA was lower than my grad one. I guess she was afraid it will go back down but being that I’m in grad school with a higher GPA should show an upward movement in ability

If it makes you feel better same thing happened to me while at EY!! 8 interviews, claim they really wanted me, silence for 2 weeks and then an email from the internal recruiter “sorry but they are taking a different direction...”

When I interviewed with EY, they seemed nice all round but not sure how clients give them work. The Sm’s and partner seemed like they were winging it. Lucky guys

Don’t take it hard. First it’s EY. Second they say that to everyone and it’s not just EY. Third sometimes all the people who’ve seen you get in a powwow and you can get disqualified for the dumbest things. I saw one good candidate get axed in two sentences because he had a little something extra around his nose that he didn’t know about.

Any googlers that can offer a perspective? Cleared all interviews for TPM. No HC review yet, as the recruiter says the new process is to find a match before HC.

I am told that there were internal candidates that fit the role better. The wait on since May, starting to lose hope now. Is team matching supposed to be this hard?

So I recently interviewed for an associate PM role with my current company. I’ve been a store manager with them for 11 years. During the interviews, I felt like things were growing great and the feedback I got at the end was great. You’d think given my time knowing the product/ company for so long, that I’d be a great fit but I got rejected and haven’t gotten feedback probably will get ghosted. Should I shoot my shot and advocate for myself with the hiring manager either way?

I have a third round interview this Thursday, but after I sent my availability, I booked a flight for work that is causing a problem.

Would it be a bad idea to say my availability changed and I can't do that time slot anymore? Or should I cancel / rebook my flight to later at night?

Should I hold out for the offer or is 1+ week a sign that I won’t be selected?
