I had one with 2 sigma. The hiring manager was using a broken microphone and even after I asked if they could change it or speak up, they continued on and I caught about 1 in 3 words the whole convo. Didn’t even have the decency to respond to my email thanking them for their time lol. Good luck

Looking for some sincere advice. I absolutely bombed a case interview today. I’m defeated. I performed as well as someone with zero preparation after over a month of prep. I seem to always panic, I get disorganized, I’m flustered and lose sight of important relationships in cases. I feel like I need a complete overhaul. Any advice of what has worked to help you change your instincts? I care more about building up my skills and self improvement than I do about doing this for an interview. TIA
