had interview today.

IDK why but I wasn't very happy with it, but normally am more so and then get PFOed.

Hope this is a good sign, but probably isn't

Usually I've seen where there's a lower hope of success that tends to go through so good luck.

I had an AC this year for the Spring VS and in my feedback call they only talked about the AC itself.

Hi all,

I had a post ac feedback call earlier this week and i wanted to check for group exercises what does a good performance look like and similarly how do you strike the balance in HR interviews between answering a question comprehensively and being concise (time is money - I’ve found that firms have different preferences and thresholds. One guy dominated the conversation and I politely chipped in, brought across my views, presenting my solution and used commercial awareness frameworks to frame it as a better one than what was being discussed, others eventually agreed, I praised others when they spoke. The firm said that I made ‘good contributions but wasn’t showing quite enough influence or engagement.’ Does this not seem contradictory?? I am so confused and would really appreciate any thoughts!

@Abbie Whitlock @Ram Sabaratnam
Thank you
