looking for advice: had final round with DoorDash, feel pretty good about it. decision coming next week. however, during my interviews i didnt discuss my unique experience (parents own a vendor truck) which i grew up working. i also have waitstaff experience, both not on resume as ive been in consulting/finance after college. position is pre sales restaurant strategy. do i reach out to one of the people who interviewed me on linkedin to give one last push for the job? do i just wait it out?

How relevant is that background to the role you're interviewing for?

If you gained relevant experience (and aren't just trying to show that you have an interest/passion in their industry/business model) you can include one or two quick anecdotes in a follow up email.

smart

this is helpful. aside from maybe emphasizing my answer to the ‘why doordash’ question its not adding much

Hi, Can someone please connect me to the recruiter/HR?
There is a Test Engineer (Automation) opening in Google which I see on LinkedIn. It seems relevant. Applied a few times already but I don't think submitting resume is helping here.
Also, I hear HR at Google helps candidate prepare for the interview as well.
Any help would be appreciated. TIA 😊

I got interviewed at infosys two days back.

When I get feedback on my resume and experience, people always mention "impressive". I feel desperate...Being in less challenging role at Amazon makes everything worse.
