They might also want to be looking for the level below but not have had it advertised?

Do I tell them that or do I make my experience sounds relevant and great and tell them I'm willing to learn and have the adaptability to pick up quick

Shoot for the level below, seriously. They won't hire a vp who hasn't done it if it's a promo too

Sell myself and be like I love this I'll learn

Agreed but not two years junior lol

But... I don't have modeling experience so....

VP is not junior, typically a tech lead or manager level at most banks. But that's awesome! Def research the field, company and role a bit more to sell yourself!

4) Is there value in attending the Pre Recruiter Call/ Candid Calls?
5) How do they expect ppl to take a full day off for “maybe”?

I interviewed with a company last week and the interviewer said he would submit my notes to the hiring manager and I would hear back this Monday from HR on next steps/if they want to move forward. I didn’t hear back yesterday so I emailed HR and she said she wasn’t part of the hiring decision so would reach out to the initial interviewer for his feedback. I haven’t heard from her and it’s been 24 hours - starting to get worried. What should I do? Does this mean they’re not interested?
