Usually 1:1, with hiring manager.

I find that when they feel relaxed yet periodically excited, and the conversation feels like it was a smooth back and forth, versus an awkward blind date. When they say yes more than no (as in understand what I’m referring to instead of needing to clarity), and agree and/or add to my ideas instead of just move to another question. More recently, I had a few good interviews and I could tell because when I was talking about what I wanted in a company and culture, they were in agreement and appreciated what I had to say. I’m much more vocal about what I want these days and that helps find a good and real connection.

Oh and sometimes, when they tell me they are going to recommend that I move forward to the next round, they also ask if I’m also interested in moving forward. I feel that is great, checking if the interest is both ways.

Boomer. I am in between jobs. Laid off in 10/21 after 16+ yrs, with an ABA firm. RIF. Still on excellent terms. Took my time living off generous package and didn’t seriously start applying until 01/22. Made a rookie mistake and accepted first offer.
Turns out job wasn’t as advertised. Mutual parting of ways 3/22. Due diligence is critical.
Now interviewing a LOT. Some temp work, I still have “it”. I relate to all gens. Willing to mentor AND learn from all. Tech savvy, CTE from day one. Leads?

Had an interview for an associate position at Citi. Interviewee was based in London and I’m in NYC. The only interview time that worked was 6am. I was barely functioning and feel like I truly messed up in my answers because I couldn’t not think clearly. I have another with the head of the division next week again at 6am (pre determined before this interview). It was also hard because the division’s core work is private enough that there was not much prep I could do beforehand. Tips?

Hi Fishes,
I recently got shortlisted for a Product Manager position at Tracxn. There’s also an IPO coming up which is the reason I had applied.
But I have read some horrifying reviews about the company on Glassdoor, indeed and other forums.

I’m wondering whether it’s worth going through the interview process and I’d also like to hear opinions from anyone who has worked with the company or is aware of the company culture.

Thanks.
