Hey everyone, I recently did an 8 hour trial at an allied health clinic where I was left alone the whole time with just a manual and notebook—no proper training from management. Afterwards, they didn’t offer me the role, saying they wanted someone more "bubbly and outgoing." I felt it was unfair since I wasn’t really given a chance.
I know this place gave major red flags but it still feels very unfair.

Was it unfair and frustrating…yes! But consider that they did you a favor, you would NOT want to be in that environment every day.

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.

I received an offer from IBM Bangalore. However I saw openings at my preferred location Kochi only after the interviews.

Anyone knows the chances of location being changed after receiving the offer and getting tagged to a project?

I have not yet accepted the offer.
