I have round 2 of an interview this week with an Internal Operations Director for an Account Executive role. Is it looked down upon to ask the recruiter who set up this interview what kinds of questions I may be asked? I want to prepare as best I can but have no idea what kinds of questions I may be asked

Definitely ask the recruiter - can’t hurt. When I’m interviewing others for junior roles I look for a few things to come through...work ethic, positive/collaborative approach and overall passion for the business and to keep learning/growing. The thing that’s most important however is personality and team fit. Make sure you show you’re personable, can carry on a good conversation and inquisitive. Think about how to pitch yourself in 60 seconds when asked. ..What have you been doing and what are you looking for next? Other typical questions you’ll find - what excites you about this opportunity? How would your team describe you? Tell me about a time when you met challenge and how did you overcome. When you’ve had a good day, what does that look like at the end of the day? What would you say are your weaknesses? Make sure you come prepared with your own questions. But again, let your true self come through in your approach and try to be as genuine/natural as possible. Good luck!

I’ve tried to counter offer but they said I’m currently maxing the salary band (L4). This role is exciting as I’d be the first UK employee, doing the full sales cycle & more but I had the same base and ote as an SDR. Is it too low? Do I take it?

I renegotiated my start date and it’s different from the date I signed on the offer letter. Do I need to request a revised offer letter or is the email thread with the recruiter sufficient. By the way, my background check is already in progress.

Might be off topic, but guys please, take care of your health. I've been rejected by all companies in the last 2 months.
I had my Walmart interview today and it went really well. And guess what? I got a rejection email.
I felt dizziness while working and fell down today.
I had to go to the doctor due to the anxiety and stress I was carrying since the last 2 months. It has affected my health.

It's important to push yourself to achieve your goals, but don't forget to "Live" in the process.
