It’s been 2 weeks since my interview and pretty sure I got rejected but I sent a follow-up on early Friday but still no response. Do I just drop it and move on? This doesn’t seem typical.

Interviewing is tough, but sometimes the delay doesn’t mean bad news. Recruiters get busy as everyone else.

If you did get rejected see if the recruiter will provide feedback to help you in the future

Thanks for the advice everyone! I just called and he told me his boss (lead recruiter) would send me an email tomorrow. I’m guessing it’s a reject but at least I’ll finally know either way.

If you went final review, I'd call the recruiter to get a definitive answer. But you should always continue to apply and interview until you accept an offer or go into negotiations if you're confident you'll ultimately accept.

Best case scenario, you get the offer and might have another offer to use as leverage for negotiations.

Worst case scenario you sat around waiting for an offer that didn't materialize and lost out on a few weeks of job searching.

Round or exact numbers on banners/LPs? I was curious about this since in negotiations for example or pricing it's better to have the exact number. But if you have a case study, for example, is it better to say "Client X increased their revenue to 1,000,000 ARR" instead of "Client X increased their revenue to 987,500 ARR" ? Anyone has seen any impact on conversion rates?

Last week I had an interview with Infosys, it didn't go well as per my expectations but i was able to answer most of the questions asked by the panel and they said I will get the feedback from HR team but it's been more than one week and I didn't get any update on this. Yesterday I also wrote an email to the HR who scheduled the interview but still no update.

Should I consider that I am not being selected?

I just started a new job this past week and I’m realizing my boss is a huge asshole and doesn’t have a great reputation in the company.

It was hard to tell during the interview process but ultimately I don’t think I’m gonna enjoy working for them. I have two other job offers I declined the other week that I could potentially go back to and see if they’re still interested in me. Is that crazy? I just have this feeling with my current employer that it’s just not gonna work out.

This job is a lot better if you don't care about the bonus and hours requirement. I can pretty easily bill 1700 hours annually and my firm so far hasn't cared in the slightest.

A quick note about what I’ve experienced, in my decade long career, is the real advantage of MBB or FAANG - it gives you a shot at stretch roles that are outside your expertise. Not all the time or even most of the time compared to better candidates with specific experience for the role but gives you this wildcard shot at a vast array of opportunities.
