What is the worst thing a reasonable person could do at a job interview and why is that so bad? (I mean a mistake even the best of us could commit)

Hi Folks - Does anyone have insights on the interview structure for consultant level (summer internship) in London?

So check this out my fellow 🐟 I’ve spent about the past 6 months interviewing and getting courted by another smaller firm. The move would be into a promo role with what I’m looking for. Got along great with the partners. First verbal offer was months ago, went quiet, then said they were concerned about sustaining projects (understandable). Then hit me up again a month ago, one more conversation, and then promise of another offer. Then radio silence. Are these guys jerking around? Any advice?

Is Salesforce on a hiring freeze for all positions? I feel like I still see postings for openings going up?

Advice/ thoughts. Interviewing at a tech startup within the construction industry for an enterprise bdr role. Tech startups scare me, although the idea and concepts are super interesting. There’s really no insights on the company but they have a pretty big investor and their exec team is super stellar in regards to their backgrounds and accomplishments. Just curious as to how others would handle this, would you take a leap of faith or stay put?

Hello. I cleared 1st round of Citi for position of Salesforce Developer. Could anyone please provide sone inputs what type of questions will be asked in 2nd round ?

Had an interview with KPMG (manager) for an FRM Consultant position about three weeks back, she mentioned that I'd be a great addition to the team and is excited to work with me but I haven't heard back anything since. On contacting HR I got the standard "we'll let you know" response.
What do you guys think? Any hopes for me? What do you think went wrong after a solid interview if no?

How does one find a recruiter? I see these job postings for Robert Half and Kelly Services, those are just temp jobs, right? Unless I’m completely mistaken...

Hi all,

I’m currently a Product Manager with less than 1 year of PM experience and 4 years consulting experience. I’m looking to make a move to Meta (Facebook) or Google in the UK London office.

Would you recommend connecting with existing PMs on LinkedIn (has anyone had any luck with this?) or maybe reaching out to Meta/Google recruiters.

Thank you!

Need Advice*** I successfully completed my interviews and was told today their working on my offer of 90k+ BUT I got thrown for a loop with the last interviewer (head of HR). She mentioned A hybrid schedule of 3 days in office, but the executive I’d be supporting told me different. I’d only have to go into the office on occasions where she’s there or for important meetings (she lives in TX and office is in CA). How do I handle this conflicting information?

I just had someone email me to interview me. I always ask what is required before I interview. They said I have to have 50k in the bank. This is supposedly to work for Farmers Insurance. Is this normal? It sounds like a scam to me.

What's a really good "difficult" question that you as a candidate can ask the (big law) interviewer?

Context: I had callbacks at a big law firm while i was in law school and after one partner finished her questions and I finished asking my questions, she told me to ask her a really tough question, something to really stump her. l fumbled and am pretty sure that majorly factored into the rejection.

I’ve had issues since high school, but just formally got diagnosed with ADHD. I’ve always managed to get by okay at work (I’m no super star), but remote meetings have been really difficult for me and I now feel like I’m barely hanging on. Trying meds now, but no benefits yet. Pros and Cons of disclosing the diagnosis to my team, partner, or firm? I’m torn.

Any tips for a graduating 3L to navigate the legal job market considering the current pandemic?

I have worked with really amazing recruiters in the past but lately I am coming across a few below average recruiters...even from really reputable/large legal recruiting companies.

Is this happening because there are so many attorneys out there that the recruiters don't have to cultivate relationships and be professional?

I must be too old school for the new normal of ghosting in recruitment. It is a sad shame, but a reality.

Are any other recruiters having candidates go around them after putting together positions for them? I am letting the firms know that the attorney has gone around me and forward the emails but is there a way to let the attorneys know this won’t go unnoticed and the firm will find out without being accusatory?

Here is my issue. I left my firm this summer for an opportunity I should have known was to good to be true. I realized it wasn’t what I was led to believe. Was able to return to my old firm. The return was “a favor”. But includes conditions. I am not happy, and need a change and honestly more money now rather than in 6-8 months. I knew it would be ruff when I went back but I didn’t expect it to be this ruff. Is my recent history gonna be a huge hurdle to even get an interview?

Fish, need your help. 5th year doing leveraged finance at a V20 in NYC. I’m good at my job but I hate the practice area. Was a direct hire. Ideally, would want to pivot to ECVC but would take PE M&A in a pinch. Have 4 years of international (non-US law) M&A and 1 year of international (US law) capital markets experience. Is it impossible to retool now? Given that markets are hot will I have to drop years (already dropped the 4 years of international experience so not keen to drop more).
