Might be opposite of ghosting but still lame: interviewing brand side, lonnng 6+ month process, was told after “final” on-site interviews I was THE top candidate, they should decide soon, then (cont)

Hey!

Does anyone have advice for how to prepare for Human Capital case interviews? I’m familiar with the Mckinsey 7S and PPT frameworks, but was wondering if there are any other recommendations from those who have gone through the interview process for HC roles recently?

I’m an experienced hire looking to make a career shift into human capital consulting, so any advice is helpful. Thanks!

Has anybody approached the job search process by rounding up a list of dream companies rather than certain roles? Would love to hear some input.

Anyone willing to give any advice about interviewing with Morgan Lewis?

Does anyone have any insight into the interview process at Barclays? I got an email with attachments on competencies I’ll be assessed on as well as their core values. For a 30 minute interview? Feels like I’m studying for a test!

🐟 Web devs - I'm currently part of a 2nd interview panel this week for a frontend dev post internally but I also like to dedicate some time outside of work to review and provide feedback for portfolios, github projects, open source contribs in preparation for any upcoming interviews you may have.

If you're up for that, give me a shout in the comments and I'll DM you.

Pretty vague question.

Have 3+ YOE in Python, working in a service based firm, CTC is 8+, joined near about a year back.

Have been reaching out by multiple recruiters on LinkedIn and Naukri. Negotiation stage at 1-2 companies.

Not sure whether to take that call to make a switch!

Two recruiters have told me that specific major national firms refuse to interview any current or former employees of the firm I work for. is this a big problem or something usual for firms? Panic set in and I’m worried I won’t find decent employment. Current role is underpaying and workload is unmanageable with zero sign of improvement.

Is it okay to wear flats/mules to a job interview?

Just done a round of interviews.

Any idea when I will hear back?

Do they usually call/email/ping with the decision? In the past it has been ping for a rejection.

Based in the UK if that makes a difference!

Cheers :)

I have my first CSR interview Wednesday! Any CSRs that could give me a little insight on what I would be doing and how your interview was?

I got an offer letter from TCS as Asst. Manager, interview lined up with EY and KPMG for BA role.
Please suggest which is better for growth and abroad opportunities.
I'll prepare for the interview accordingly.
To be honest I'm confused. Need genuine guidance before making move.

How many rounds of interview does Persistent take ...cleared with the first round ...any tips/info about the further process?

what kind of excuses do people use when they have to fly out for interviews and their group is highly anti-recruiting

After competency based interview with AVP and onsite Tech lead....what all other round expected for Application support profile ?

A recruiter contacted me for a position I love. She says I’m a good match and will put my resume and cover letter into the “portal”….-What does that mean? Is a portal the same thing as if I applied online myself? I always imagined recruiters have personal relationships with hiring managers. So I was surprised to hear about an online submission portal.

How many portfolio pieces do you show during an interview? I’m applying for a UX UI position and they want me to share my work

I know we've all dealt with recruiters ghosting us. Have you ever dealt with a recruiter who was overly pushy throughout the whole process?

If a second round interview ends with the hiring manager saying the recruiter will be getting in touch in the next couple of days - that’s prob a rejection, right? Haven’t interviewed in years…

Need referral in KPMG. Can anyone help?

What's the best advice you've gotten from senior real state agents?

Cute Christmas gift ideas for woman around age 25-30?

27yo single male trying to plan my birthday next month. 8 bros are flying in from San Diego. Would love your suggestions for fun things to plan!

Have an extra ACL weekend GA for sale- anyone interested?

Interview question for Angular Developer in TCS having 3 plus years of experience, any suggestions?

Do any retail workers out there still get severe anxiety when you see someone without a mask?

Have majority of us started our teenage years in retail?

I want to get out of warehouse work. What's a good-paying job where I don't need a lot of schooling?

Veterinarians and their staff have to balance compassion with practicality, I get that, and I know not every animal can be saved. But have you ever been pressured to try to save an animal that you knew probably wasn't going to make it because the customer would pay more that way?

Has anyone heard of Sellers Dorsey before? Any feedback on WLB, pay, work environment?

How is Cedar in terms of culture, salary range, etc…? TIA!!!

I have a question about audit in Europe. Is the work life balance just as bad? As the stereotype goes, they work as a means to live rather than living to work. If that is true, what is different if the type of work is more or less the same?

What can you guys tell me about auditing a private equity fund?

Has anyone here interviewed with Platinum Equity ? How’s the culture of the firm ? Was reading some threads on Wall Street oasis and people had nasty things to say. About to start interviewing for ops associate role.

How long it will take to receive cis form after L2 interview round. I have attended L2 round last week. Still no response

Hi Fishes! I am searching for an opportunity in Financial Planning and Analysis role (Finance) with 7.7 years of experience. Any leads ? Appreciations in advance !!

Didn’t get ghosted. Instead got specific feedback that I suck.

Twitter and Verizon.

Agency flys me out then decides not to hire me. Told me to keep receipts from the trip. I’ve sent over 3 emails about it. No response. Unsaid rule about not getting hired that you got to pay for it?!?

ghosted from FIG :(

Juliette Rue at Deutsch LA

So pretty much everyone... sigh

Does anyone recognize the photo I used for this bowl?

I’ll go first. Ogilvy had me jump through many hoops, ghosted me, called me back a year later for more interviews, then ghosted me again.

Acronym NYC was a nightmare to try to get feedback/move the process along

215 McCann, Heat SF, and LinkedIn (in-house)

McCann was the worst. Ogilvy and RG/A

Sadly a lot of recruiters are unemployed and being ghosted themselves.

Hopefully this pandemic will open the eyes of some on the practice of ghosting...

Had what had to be the best call with a recruiter I’ve ever had — she seemed so excited to pass my work to her teams, received the sweetest follow up email from her, but now it seems like she’s ghosting me. UGHHHHH. Any words of wisdom or advice? Feeling bummed because I was super excited about this opportunity.

Vaynermedia, every 2 years.

Scale of 1-10, how crazy is it to check-in email the CDs you interviewed with? Unless there’s been a terrible accident I’m pretty sure the recruiter is ghosting me. The not knowing is killing me!

Anyone else get ghosted by more than one recruiter at the same agency? Thought I would have better luck when the first recruiter who was notorious for ghosting left but the new one ghosted me too...

Flew from London to the US for a two day interview marathon. Had one call with HR two weeks later where I was told they were gathering feedback and would get back to me asap. Never heard back. (contd)

Rita Armstrong. Talked big game about getting me in front of a bunch of shops and then never responded to any follow ups.

I’ve been ghosted again. For the 4th time. In a horrible year of forced freelance/unemployment. And these weren’t just initial stage ghostings but like 5+interviews in. In one case... (continued)

Greetings, Ghosted! bowl members. As 2019 concludes, people who posted here: please let us know if you ever heard back from your ghosters.
