I was very excited for the opportunity at PwC and went through the 4 rounds. But at the final partner round, the partner was disinterested from the beginning unlike the 3 directors who interviewed me earlier.

I am a senior hire and 3 days after parner interview I asked the recruiter, she emailed me saying everyone thought of very highly and impressed with me, but had to go with another candidate.

Now when I check my application status it says 'candidate withdrew'? What happend you think?

Sounds like you should get some clarity on that

I just went through the same thing with PwC. The fourth and final round was with someone who was 20 minutes late to the interview. When she finally joined the call, it was clear she didn’t do her homework and knew nothing about me. I was not given an offer after this, but frankly it was a relief if that’s how the team operates.

They're blaming you for their choices, at least officially. Be glad you avoided having to deal with them on a daily basis if that's how they operate.

They just withdrew you from being a candidate.

Not true lol. It should say 'Not selected', based on my friend who got declined after pre-screening. Some shenanigans.

Hi! I have a quick question and could use some advice:

I have 1 job offer that is an hour away and pays 45k, after negotiations (Research Associate Position at a University) .

I have just interviewed for a position closer to home and a base salary of 65k, but haven’t heard back from them in about 2 days (He said he would make a decision by yesterday and I’ve reached out).
I have to decide on the first offer by Thursday but I haven’t heard back from the second yet. Thoughts on next move?

I had a very positive experience interviewing with Amazon for an L5 Technical Writer role. I originally applied for a lower level writing role, ending up acing my Loop, and was passed on to speak to the hiring manager for the L5 role.

Given the positive tone of our conversation, I expect to receive an offer this week.

Can somebody tell me what kind of base salary/bonus/RSU ranges I should aim for? I'm transitioning to tech and have 10+ years of professional writing experience. PNW based.

So had my first interview in one of the big 4 but it got me completely off guard. First one was call screening and then a technical interview. Now what I didn’t expect is rather than technicalities they focused on the consulting a lot more. Now the role that was marketed was technical/Architect and they even said that in current capacity you’ll work here as a technical person. I don’t think it went well. Coming from a technical background I was hoping for coding .
Is it always like this?
