The past year my profile got shortlisted for almost all big firms like Google, Facebook, Microsoft, Amazon etc.I do perform well in the technical & other aspects but am unable to get past the behavioural rounds. Scoured online resources but not able to exactly narrow the reasons for rejection. Kept learning from past interactions & implementing in next opportunities, still the results are the same & feel exhausted now. No specific feedback also leaves you in the dark. Any suggestions and guidance?

That's difficult without feedback to go on. Do you know anyone who works there and who would be willing to sit down with you and really go into the differences between your behavioral rounds and theirs?

I do not have any first level contacts there and the ones I am connected to on social media are not much responsive or have given very generic remarks which were not helpful much.
Thanks for taking concern and acknowledging the post.

Wow. I'd start to reach out on LinkedIn to people who work for those companies that are in the roles you were interviewing for and ask these questions. Sorry you've had to deal with this

Thanks for the concern and suggestion.

I'm curious to hear what generic feedback you've gotten, that can help with giving advice. I think it's a good sign that your profile is being shortlisted. It might just be how you come across (i.e, not confident enough, too anxious etc) that could be it. Remember that the behavioural stuff is them trying to figure out how you'll fit into company culture and stuff, so it's very individual to each one and you'll have to tailor the responses accordingly
