Recruiter reaches out for my availability and a good phone number to schedule a phone screen. I give her my info and I’m sent a Google Meet invite. Wait, what? I thought you said phone? Is this a test? 🤔😆

Yea some companies do this. They say phone but send a video invite. Meta did this for their technical phone interview. Ask the recruiter what you can expect from the call.

Started interviewing to get negotiation leverage as our company is being acquired. Got some offers but I’m getting offers faster than the acquisition deal is closing within my current role. I don’t want to turn down a new opportunity at another company without testing the waters under our new acquired structure, but also don’t want to stay and then regret not taking another job. Need advice on how to approach this situation.

😐💀 It really shouldn't matter but I was asked for my graduation year with 7 YOE.

What's a concise way to summarize this: didn't graduate the year I'm supposed to (2013), worked in between, went back to school and fnally finished bachelor's degree 6 years later (2019).

So is that still class of 2013 (prob not right)? Or class of 2019?

(1) I recently interviewed for a senior auditor position at a company and hadn’t heard back from them so I followed up. The recruiter’s response was that I was still being considered for the position but the team had moved forward with other candidates that were better suited due to their experience. The recruiter also said that they enjoyed my interview but the team felt I needed a bit more work experience and that they would reach out if they would like to move forward with me.

I have an on-site final interview round at SpaceX for an analyst role. I will need to present a professional project to a panel of 5 members and will have 4 1:1s with different team members.

I'm terrified that I'll be the dumbest person in the room and won't be able to answer anything. Any positive words will help! Thank you.

Hi guys! I had an interview last Saturday with the CEO for an EA role (that was the 3rd interview). The company rushed the process for me because they knew I had another offer. The first 2 interviews went extremely well that’s why they rushed & asked the ceo to interview me on a Sat. morning. Huge common point: The CEO and I are both French. The interview went kinda weird… it was less than 15min. Looked distracted/ not prepared. When I asked him questions he barely elaborated. Comments⬇️
