I am exhausted with the interview process for product. I am being told that my profile is strong and that people will snap me up. I am getting interviews and now I am getting rejected for a variety of reasons, despite doing well in the rounds. I have even written business cases for several of the companies I am talking to. These have consistently been in the category of better qualified candidates or much more heavy users of the product. At this point, I am just exhausted.

Hearing so much of the same from so many. Hang in there! If you need community, this is what I've found as the most beneficial for weathering the current market conditions, including how poorly interviewing and hiring have become.

Did a first interview with hr rep, went very well. she set up the hiring manager meeting for a few days later. Met with the manager. Another great conversation, went over time and was told I’d hear back about panel set up. Following day I get a request from hr rep to “continue the conversation” with manager. This is set up Tuesday.
Why do you think the manager wants to meet again? Good? Bad? I felt great about the interview when we ended.

Any advice on shifting from association law to commercial real estate in FL?

I've been applying to jobs for months but every position wants at least 2yrs of experience in real estate transactions, usually way more. I'm at 1yr+ doing HOA/condo work but have had no opportunity to do real estate transactions like I expected. Seems like the only way to get the experience is to have nailed a big law gig right out of school and get put into that practice.

During interviews, how do you talk about the “result” or “impact” of a consulting project you were on?

So how do you talk about it?

Have others found it hard to transition from Audit to Financial Analyst? All the recruiters I’m meeting with are telling me I probably won’t get an interview since they’re looking for someone who’s ready to hit the ground running.
It’s discouraging because I’m a fast learner, and from talking to my friends who are Financial Analysts, it doesn’t seem like what we do is so dissimilar.

Hello Sharks,

I am a Mechanical Engineer with ~5 years of experience in Aerospace Industry. Graduated in Tier 2 city college.

I want to give a try to Canadian opportunities and it would be really helpful if someone gives me initial guidance.

I am aware of the process but would need some detailed guidance, probably from someone who has migrated from India to Canada with a Tier 2 city college degree.

Thank you in advance.
