Do any of you know anything about Mabbly?
First American Financial Corporation I have attended two rounds of interview in First American Finan Company last week and have received an email that I have been selected in their interview process. The talent acquisition team did not send me an offer letter instead have sent me a BGC form which I submitted yesterday. I found it very strange as usually first offer letter is rolled out and then BGC check happens if the candidate accepts the offer. Today there was no communication. Can anyone tell me if they faced this situation?TIA

I recently applied to the Content Designer, 2023 Graduate remote role at Atlassian and I'd appreciate it if I could get a referral.
Here are some details to aid in your decision-making:
- Last summer, I worked at Google as a UX Content Design Intern.
- I am currently in a grad program at
NYU and will graduate in Spring 2023.
- Before graduate school, I spent 3+ years as a Copywriter in Advertising.
I'd really appreciate any recommendation I can get at this time.

Hey! Are you a grad student? If yes, are you by any chance a member of the Grad consulting club?
No, I am not a grad student.
Took me 3 times. Play the long game
This is great to know. Thank you for the feedback
What was your feedback the first 2 times? How did you improve? What resources did you use?
1. Straight no interview despite multiple strong name internship - needed to network more
2. I blew up the case
That is what happened with me as well. They said my problem solving needed more work. How did you prepare for the 3rd time?
Just multiple recruiting cycles. I did experience hires for T2 and then again for McK
4 times at different stages of life.
Wow you have a lot of patience. What didnot work the first 3 times and what worked the 4th time?
It’s not really about patience, it was more about McKinsey still made sense as a place to apply at different stages of my life.
- graduating college senior
- 2-3 years out after college
- MBA student
- 2-3 years after mba job hop
There’s an initial disappointment of - hey - I didn’t break into MBB and look at what my classmates are doing that I’m not. But that fades - honestly there is so much exciting work out there.
The point is that you just continue to grow. My first job gave me a lot of client exposure, and I got confident in managing client relationships, leading teams. But it wasn’t strategy, it was IT implementation.
My second job (out of mba) was as an internal strategy consultant at a big tech company. Learned a lot of skills, ways of thinking, starting and finishing a strategy project.
Why Mckinsey now? Geographic move closer to family pushed me to look for a new job. I missed being client facing. And I’m still looking to accelerate my career as much as possible. I do miss the tech wlb though.
My first time was a failure, I didn't make it up to the last round of interview. They invited me for the second time but I was out of the country. The third time, I made it.
Can you let me know how you prepped?
Honestly this warms my heart that I’m not only one who played the long game
I applied twice. But I never got a single offer.
