I've spent so much time preparing and interviewing for this role, I know I would be perfect for. But during the final interview this afternoon, I crashed and burned. I don't think I've ever bombed an interview so badly in my life. Since this was supposed to be the final interview, I'm guessing there is no way I could recover?

You could ask the recruiter for feedback

There is such a thing as over preparing. The preparation needs to be loose, fluid, responsive. I hope you are able to recover from this setback.

I hope that you are the only one who thinks you “bombed” the interview. We are often our own worst critic.

Some people try to explain in their thank you note. In my opinion, that just makes it worse.

Hi guys,

I need genuine suggestions. I was holding offer from IBM and Wipro & now have got a good offer from a mid size organization.
I want to negotiate with IBM and Wipro & join any of these two.

Do these companies negotiate? When & how should I start negotiation with them ?

I would like to talk professionally so that they provide me a matching CTC or in case, they can't at least they don't block me for future openings.

Please suggest, if anyone can share their experiences.
