So, Interviewed at Accenture last Friday.. Monday, the recruiter got back to me, said thanks for talking— the next step is to video interview with a partner... then ghosted me. This normal?

Chill, the MDs are busy and they have lives too. You’ll be contacted on short notice at the most in opportune moment for the video interview.

I guess I should’ve been more clear— the recruiter ghosted me, I’m not worried about the timing of the next interview. No response to simple questions. Still hasn’t provided an actual job description, etc.

Was interested in pursuing it, but after two weeks of no response and, as you said, popping up to just tell me when I’m interviewing at inopportune times... I’m not so interested. Wanted to know if this is common.

I literally had to tell the first interviewer that the recruiter didn’t actually tell me what the position entailed and anything he could tell me was the first I was hearing of it— I had just agreed to talk. His answer was “well, there’s many ways we can use your experience...” Wut. This is delivery, not mgmt/strat consulting.

How do I prepare for an MD interview when I have no idea what they’re looking for in the position?

I guess I’ve just never experienced such an ad hoc recruitment— seems like they’re making it up as they go.

....so it's only been a few days? have you done much recruiting in general? This is normal

At last I asked the interviewer about feedback as in where was I wrong. He said at couple of places and he explained me where was I wrong.

Do you all think I will be rejected?
