Today reminds me of when I interviewed with Deutsche Bank in 2018. Morning of the interview, saw on the news that their headquarters were raided for money laundering. Made the “Why do you want to work at Deutsche Bank?” hard to answer, I just wanted a job after college. Have fun anyone interviewing for McKinsey this week!

I had a headhunter from Equifax recently reach out. Took a lot of restraint to not give a snarky reply about their data policy.

That was a bridge I was happy to burn right around when their big scandal came to light. Had a recruiter reach out and I sent him a nicely written, but scathing, response about why I had no interest in ever working for them under any circumstances. That was one of the few times I've actually responded to random recruiters with a personalized response.

Had my 2nd interview with the hiring manager this past Friday & sent a thank you shortly after. It's now Tuesday (for those who see this on another day). At the end of the interview he said they've had other people who were interested but only one other person besides me were they considering. Said he would talk to his team and possibly have me fly out to meet in person. How long should I wait to follow up without seeming pushy? Also welcome any other tips to separate me from other candidate.
