Sorry to hear OP, and quite unusual that they can’t be flexible with the interview date. Were you sure to specify that you were interested in moving the interview up only, and are okay with a later start date?

I mentioned exactly that.

Update. Checked with the recruiter. They cannot move it up. 😥

Yeah they are probably not holding many interviews until MBA and undergrad recruiting start in September, so they are lumping you in there because they already have everything setup for that cycle

Sorry to hear PM1 - which region/office was the request for?

Thanks OP - so sorry to hear again, best of luck!

Had an interview for an associate position at Citi. Interviewee was based in London and I’m in NYC. The only interview time that worked was 6am. I was barely functioning and feel like I truly messed up in my answers because I couldn’t not think clearly. I have another with the head of the division next week again at 6am (pre determined before this interview). It was also hard because the division’s core work is private enough that there was not much prep I could do beforehand. Tips?

Need advice on a specific question!
Interviewed with Chicago court 2 weeks ago; they decide mid-August. Interviewed with DC judge last week; hear from him by this Friday. Chicago said if I need an answer before August, they'd try to make a decision about me sooner.
Should I ask Chicago for an answer? Or should I wait until there's an offer from DC judge? Maybe seems better to withdraw before an offer is made rather than ask for time to think about it/turn down DC? What's proper etiquette?
