Hi Fishes
I want to share very bad experience I had at Mastercard
I was given offer by Mastercard in month of Dec The hike was less but looking at brand & other perks I accepted the offer & was looking forward to joining them.I got few offers & I went back to them for sole purpose of renegotiating CTC, to have a industry standard hike. They didn't reverted back for 2-3 days & just dropped a mail that they are revoking initial offer as well on grounds that they didn't like i gave other interview

I got a call from the Google recruiter about my L7 em interview Google She said I did overwhelmingly good on all interviews except one had mixed feedback on a system design. No surprise because it was not a good interview. The recruiter said i had a choice to go to hiring committee, give referrals they could call about my system design or take another system design interview. I’m not confident about the system design because of the bad experience I had with the previous interviewer. What should I do?

I don't know if this is the best advice, but I tend to admit that I did make a mistake. I'll start with that and own up to the mistake. This may turn people against me, but I personally feel that it is better to be honest up front. Then I'll lead into what I learned from it. I find that most people are understanding of people making mistakes and being honest about it. Not everyone will be, but most people seem to be.
I try to find a scenario that is common and universally relateable, so the person interviewing me will be nodding in agreement and (hopefully) thinking "this person gets it"
Some examples - talking about that change from high performing SME to manager of others - learning to neutralize the early tendency to manage ppl to the ways "you would do it", the learning curve of helping direct reports develop and learn vs trying to get everyone to do things "your way" with outcomes that "match your standards"
Learning to "scale yourself" and accomplish more with the time you have, which may mean automating (or saying no to) lower value work, rethinking process and approach to create "more impactful" and strategic deliverables in the same amount (or even less) time
The specifics of the time and place can be unique to you, but first find a kind of universal "career moment" that is highly relatable and that also signals "Im a smart, strong performer"
