Slalom 🐠: I interviewed with a team in SF in January and was dinged. I now have another interview with a different team in the SF office. Do I bring up my previous discussions? How, when? Cont.

I got dinged from Slalom too! Crazy is that I got offers from every other top consulting firm that I interviewed with. I even got an in person from AWS. I think I just interviewed with someone who had dinged me before I interviewed. I would also look at the persons background before you interview. If they don’t have any big names on their resume, I would watch out! Try again though! Maybe you can get through the second time!

Fingers crossed...

When they put you into our system, it’ll show you’ve interviewed before. So they’ll read the notes (if they are prepared). Be ready to talk to it should it come up

Cont.: I got this interview by emailing a bschool alum and she connected me to HR. So I haven’t officially put my resume back into the system. In process of scheduling coffee with the alum and a chat with HR.

Thanks, that’s what I was hoping. It is a different recruiter, I just wasn’t sure if at some point they’ll dig through their applicant files and see my old record (if that even exists).

Quick question.
I was a contractor for a big company and they just let me know that my last day is December 30th. I got this position thanks to a recruiting company that has been great and gives me benefits.
Should I:
- Continue working with the recruiting company, hoping that they will find another position for me? (as they told me they will, and when they applied me I started working with my current company within 2 weeks)
- Work with the recruiter + apply for jobs on my own?
