I did not make it to the next round of interviews at EY. Just want to be able to find a job. Even with referrals I am still getting rejected for jobs. Frustrated.

You must be struggling a bit with behavioral (B4 have pretty lax cases). Really focus on refining your story. How did you get where you are? What have you learned? How has that informed your decisions? And why is this job the next logical step in your journey? It may sound stupid but try to be emotive and genuine.

Sometimes it’s not reflective of you. The economy has ultimate jurisdiction. Even if it’s just sentiment.

And a referral can mean different things. Some referrals are just acquaintances and are treated as such. Some referrals are because you have extensive work experience with current employee - these obviously hold more weight.

Hello!

I finished my final round(s) for a TAM position at 
Google (GCP) last week and was told by my recruiter that my feedback was great and that I made a solid impression on the team and am "firmly in the running". I was supposed to hear back this week (according to the recruiter) but he just told me that it's still in the process and that I'll have to wait for another week or so.

Is this common at Google ? I have heard they are notorious for being really slow with their hiring process.

Friends, need some feedback on an idea:

I’m thinking of starting a podcast interviewing leaders at startups about their experience with specific challenges - I know, cliche, get a more original hobby, etc.

Not looking for the narrative arc of How I Built This or Masters of Scale. Instead, looking to uncover specific problems faced by companies that tried something new for the first time. What did they not see coming, how did they adapt and measure, etc.

What are your thoughts on this format?
