I got through multiple rounds of interviews for a job and didn’t get moved forward. It’s a Sr job and I’m Sr level. I asked for feedback on the interview process and was told there wasn’t anything specific, I made it far and did well.

It made me wonder if asking for interview feedback after Sr level interviews is really appropriate? Should I be far enough in my career that I don’t need that specific feedback?

It's not a junior question.
You should always ask for feedback, especially as a senior in case there is something you don't know.

As seniors there are very few times and and even fewer people (right or wrong) who can give constructive feedback, an interview should be that place.

Yes and no. On one hand, we all know the game, lots of candidates, connections, timing screwups and specific needs. At the same time, improvement is good and asking helps. But everyone’s just gotta realize when you take an interview you are not alone and unless you have someone in your corner it’s going to be tough.

It's a junior question, but it's not like you're moving forward, so might as well derive some sort of value from the effort!

You’re not giving any advice - you’re just being snide and I’m doing the same back to you. What’s the advice? So far I’ve seen “don’t just ask”

like

Many places won’t give feedback because they’re afraid of saying something that could become fodder for a lawsuit, regardless of level.

Hi all -
Sorry for the long rant, but could use advice or just encouragement.

Got laid off for the first time in my career 3 weeks ago. I have 10 years of PM experience (mostly ecommerce & experimentation). I was fortunate in the past to have had recruiters scout me directly so this is the first time in over a decade that I am applying to everything that I’m qualified for, mostly qualified for, and way over qualified for with zero leads. Only 3 interviews thus far that didn’t go forward.

Is it "deep tech" / "data science" or "smart enterprise" that they're doing? Any advice welcome.

I’m really annoyed and tired. Thoughts?
