Has anyone ever asked for accommodations and extended time during consulting case interviews or other skills-based interviews? Apparently the company I'm interviewing with has given it in the past, but I'm hesitant about asking for them, and my recruiter needs to know ASAP. 😬

If they're asking, and have done so in the past, go for it especially if you actually need it.

If the company is being proactive about it they take this stuff seriously and will not judge you negatively for it (assumption)

Yep exactly, I think I'm much better in front of clients and the team than in a case interview, so I was thinking of controlling for that.

Thank you for your responsiveness and insight! 😊 I appreciate it lots.

Take every opportunity you get to increase your chances of success.

consider asking for what will help you perform at your best. and imagine if this company is really serious about making time for different ways to process information.

i would love to see this as a common adjustment to invite the best from applicants.

in fact, i’d love them to use the free Work Style Profile to better understand new employees.

it’s a way to articulate what you need. we all do better under certain conditions. lmk if you’d like a link.

good luck!

Just graduated with Aerospace Engineering degree. I am interviewing for multiple positions at once with different companies. One gave me an offer and they want me to get back to them within 2 days. I still have other interviews scheduled and some for higher paying jobs (around 90k) What should I do?
I do like the company that gave me an offer but their base pay was 80k and they went up to 85k. Is asking for them to match the 90k too much? The position is associate systems engineer.

Is it okay if I ask my interviewer from the first round tips for the next round of interview/format of interviews? They’re a school alumni.
