I had an interview loop where three people asked me literally the same question: “Tell me about a time you failed.” I tried to switch up my answer each time, but it started to feel weird? By round three I was mentally checked out. Is anyone actually learning anything from these copy-paste behavioral questions? If you could redesign the process, what would you do differently?

Advice needed on handing in notice, I recently signed an offer letter and understand the screening process takes 4-6 weeks. I have a month's notice period and have agreed a preliminary start date in Feb.

Just found out that end of the year I will be promoted from analyst directly to VP and since it’s such a large jump I’ll be the lowest paid VP in asset management at only $135k TC.
