This is the 2nd company that rejected me after the 2nd round of interviews. Latest one left a bitter taste as I felt I was doing good during the interview process and felt I was really a good fit. On to the next one.

Don't worry. You would have been a good fit. They just had a lot of options and went with someone else.

Really a bummer that they never tell you why.

There is a lot of competition out there right now. It might be you were a strong candidate but the other person had a stronger background or showed more interest. Hiring is such a subjective process.

Director interview after super day?

Had a super day last week and I thought it went well, partner sent back a nice message to my thank you note. Trying not to read too into it, but is it normal to have an interview with another director after having already interviewed with a director (and a MD)?

I did mention I have interest in a specific area with a director last week and it looks like this next director I’m interviewing primarily works in that area.

Any help would be appreciated.

My psychiatrist today revealed to me that I may have ADHD, still a hypothesis that he is still exploring but from my personal experiences and discussions with therapist, it seems likely.

One example of personal experience is my ongoing prep for case studies as I'm interviewing with a number of firms. I do struggle to keep focus and generally take a bit longer to finish them, specifically the structuring of the case. Does anybody else feel the same way and any recommendations to overcome this?

Lowes India is hiring across multiple positions!
Also they have launched a cool referral programme ;)
In case you are looking for a job opportunity for Analysts/Software Engineers/ Data Engineer at all level and also some managerial role, please DM.
Happy to refer! In case of knowing the company before applying- can help on that too!

Happy weekend in advance!
