I applied for a role at Big Tech and I have my phone screen scheduled today with a VP today. At the same time my current company has pitched for a project at this big Tech and I am scheduling an interview call with the same VP this week to discuss our approach and proposal. My company pitched the work based on my credentials and experience - what should I do?

Let them know in the interview. Maybe theyd be willing to reschedule while you’re interviewing with them. If they can get you, why would they hire the company you currently work for!

like

I would alert your recruiter and remind them that you would like to keep your application confidential.

There is also risk here if the company has any sort of non-compete with your agency. Some agreements will ban a client from hiring ‘key staff’ for some period of time.

Plus I have several partners on the email chain going around to the VP. Do you think he will tell them about my job application?

I would ask him not to during the interview.

McKinsey & Company How likely is McKinsey to rescind an offer if there's a recession/downturn before my start date? Received an Associate offer with a start date early in the Fall.

Has this happened to anyone before at McKinsey, offer getting rescinded due to economic/company downturn? A bit worried
