Just finished MC interview. Don't know what to think. The split was meant to be 35 minutes commercial and 35 minutes competency (plus it was CV blind). The partner kept pushing me on commercial awareness and queried all my answers. I had responses but that meant I had even less time for competency. He did make some positive remarks throughout but ultimately, I was asked 2 competency questions before the interview ended. Not sure what the outcome will be tbf
 
Had A&O VS AC last week, mega tough. From what I know, there are finishing interviewing this week and there will be no more ACs --> anybody who has not heard yet from them, I'd assume PFO.

Anybody who have been to their AC recently, are you all still waiting to hear if its offer or not? Just curious if it is just me who has not heard back anything from them yet post-AC.
 
anyone else get big post-AC anxiety ? so hard not to replay parts of the interview and keep thinking of shoulda, woulda, coulda moments
Yeah I do. Had my first ac a week ago and it was the worst experience after as I knew what I had done wrong. Couldn't stop thinking about it until after I found out if I got on or not. Honestly I just dropped everything and tried to relax until I found out, it kinda helped. Hang out with friends, watch a movie, try to chill :)

I had my AC last week for direct tc but wasn’t told when I would hear back. Were you told?
