That is awful to not even respond. Was that post VI?

for pathfinder, no follow-up after sjt and wg. shame because I had attended like 3 links events, 2 being application-based (if that matters which i doubt) and was overall most confident for that one. not shaping up to be a great first year but who knows.

i'm intl so don't really have that time after graduating. its a horrendous job market for intl students but i figured if i start early i might have some luck, but i guess we'll see tomorrow.

Did you guys also find the personality questions so weird lol I personally decided that if i don't hear by the end of this week i'll assume it's most likely a rejection since it's an asap start but idk, they may also want to be thorough

Yess, I thought the culture questions were so odd. I do hope we hear back by this week or the beginning of the next for interviews, which I assume would be the last stage (and hope).

yeah I think it's common with them. as someone waiting to hear back from pathfinder, I literally know I've been rejected - because they seem to be done with the next stage (interviews). Yet it's been over a month and they haven't updated me

pathfinder applicant here. I believe they sent out phone interview invites in 2 rounds a few weeks ago, don't know why they don't just update our profiles. might as well make it official that I was rejected no need to put me on hold.
