Nothing it’s a fit interview. Main question will be walk me through your resume/tell me about yourself so prepare by crafting elevator pitch

Hopefully this isn’t redundant or too obvious, but also just try to stick out with something unique; and it never hurts to be generally likable. You’re assumed to be qualified at this point, so this is the “can I survive sitting next to this person on a plane” portion of the interview.

My partner basically just asked me if I had any questions for him. It took like 15 minutes. Good luck!

Thank you for the reply. Mich appreciated

Show your personality. My partner told me I had the job based the what other interviewers said so he just wanted to know a little bit about me and why I wanted to work for the firm. Really emphasize why it’s the best fit for you.

Understood, thanks for the insight!

If it’s at KPMG, you are fine as they are taking anyone at the moment due to a mass exodus

I'm holding an offer from MakeMyTrip and another offer from OlaElectric. Ninjacart is willing to make me an offer. But they're saying that they'd discuss the offer only after the other company that I'm interviewing with has come up with an offer first. There's been a delay from HRs of the companies in a similar way. How do I urge them to send me the offer letter without sounding pushy? I had reached out to some of the HRs myself. Would that be too awkward if I accept & back out their offer?
