Partners - do recruiters/headhunters ever reach out to you? What types of roles/levels do they reach out for?

When you independently search for other opportunities (if you do), what types of roles do you look for?

Have you ever interviewed with Maersk? Had 5 interviews and now the recruiter is ghosting me. A rejection email would be better, to be honest… I am very disappointed.

Advanced to the “case study” round of an in-house opportunity that I’m excited about. Coming from AM Law 10, but have never heard anything specific about such a study. Haven’t received it yet. What should I expect?

Hiring managers: What do you read on a resume?

Do you only look for the portfolio URL?

Is a bulleted list helpful if you’ve never heard of the agencies?

Do you truly care about software skills?

I have an interview Bloomberg for sales and analytics, can anyone give insight to what to expect at the super day?

Bad idea to reneg on an internship offer for a better offer?

I finally got through to the Hiring committee round at Google. Should I be excited or nervous or not read into at all?

Hi fishes ,

I have offer from tcs in pipeline for SSE role.Recently got promoted in Infosys.Should I tell tcs HR now or wait for offer letter.

Got few questions regarding LTI and business analyst role. 1:Does anyone have any idea how many rounds are normally conducted for LTI business analyst interview. 2.How how many days they take normally to release offer. 3. How much should i expect /ask for 4.8 yoe for business analyst role.

I recommended a candidate for hire to a manager that reports directly to me. This person is a perfect match, but wanted the manager to obviously recommend. It has to be a fit. The manager just told me my recommendation is not her top pick. I feel frustrated because as much as we talk about the position, I wonder if we are mot aligned on criteria. What do I do? Do I push more for the person I want or will I cause an issue with the hiring manager? How do I get her to see this person’s value?

Can someone please guide on the interview questions asked for SAP Ariba consultant role with 2-3 yrs relative experience.

CCTC: 17
YOE: 8.3

Got 2 offers:
Lucidworks - 33
Boeing - 35(Verbal offer after countered them with lucidworks offer).

Now with freshworks, last round is pending.
Let me know what would be better.

From interview perspective, I enjoyed lucidworks interview as the interviews taken by quality people compared to other two companies. But it is a startup.

Btw, I have been interviewed for 6 rounds in Citrix and waiting to hear from them.

Folks who conduct interviews at FAANG level companies (behavioral and technical): what is it that you are “actually” looking for in candidates? I realize there are standards you’re making sure folks live up to, but is there ever a role that “gut feeling” plays in people you accept or reject?

Has anybody interviewed for a sales position at Vericast? I’m going to be asked to do a presentation, what is all of that about? Is this something I already have that I am presenting or a product on their company? Thank you in advance

Hey all. I have an interview with an investment bank coming up. I am currently a senior associate at big 4 doing financial due diligence. Can anyone give me interviews tips/what to study? I am very new to the diligence (less than 3 months), so am far from understanding a deal start to finish.

My current package is 6 lakh and at time of screening I said expected 10 lakh , should I tell I expect 11 lakh in managerial round or different nos will lead to rejection.Also salary negotiable is done by manager only? Experience - 3 years 3 month

Just say NO, Sorry your skills are not a match, don't ignore. You were also candidates once.

Worse they say We'll check or get back to you. But never come back. Luckily I got selected into a tier-1 company and their Recruiter ignored me once 😂. I am gonna personally meet that recruiter on Day1.

This post is an alert message for anyone joining the Johnson & Johnson EMEA account for SAP & had Rakesh Sharma for their Manager round.

He is nothing less than a con man & will promise you a lot to make you join the account. After that he will put you in testing projects. If you ask for a release, he will either not release you or release with a very bad rating and influence other project managers to not take you into their projects.

You will be left with no choice other than leaving TCS.

My LWD is 2nd July 2022 and I got offer letter from TCS in March. Can anyone let me know when will I get the joining letter from TCS?
