tidal ridge
#

if u finished the 3 questions they asked then just had a normal converstaion with the interviewer the last 30 mins or so then youre fine

kindred frost
#

i think mostly behavior that i have done is just talking a lot and making sure the intervieee is entertained

tidal ridge
#

oh i talked to mine for like 40 mins after the questions were done

kindred frost
#

and if u felt there was like an active energy

#

ur prob good

@silver snow did you know what team you were on prior to starting? I have been assuming that I won't know, but maybe it's worth asking.

dusky tinsel

Alright, I will, thanks

silver snow

"wow, thank you so much for your rejection email!"

tidal ridge
#

u usually dont get the interviewers emails anyway

silver snow

tidal ridge
#

then ur fine

kindred frost
#

is it true if u dont get an offer after 1 week of final interview

#

ur chances of rejections are high

silver snow
#

no

digital temple
#

where did u hear that

#

bc I heard that it doesn't really matter

silver snow
#

timeline has no effect on accept/rej

kindred frost
#

na just asking

digital temple
#

It's not easy on the heart but yeah

silver snow
#

do u guys know if they near hc yet

#

i doubt but wonderin

digital temple
#

that's what I'm scared of

#

I was so happy to be in the second week of interviews

#

and then now everyone getting offers while I'm benched

silver snow
#

ok chill

#

u prob gettin the offer

#

hc last yr was spring break

digital temple
#

oh rly

#

tidal ridge
#

silver snow
#

digital temple
#

sg can I dm you

silver snow
#

tidal ridge
#

total?

silver snow
#

tidal ridge
#

#

its mcol

#

trust me its more than enough there

tidal ridge
#

gotcha

#

does c1 blacklist if u renege

silver snow
#

fuck no

#

they got way bigger issues lol

#

companies only blacklist if small intern cohort, join then dip midway, etc.

tidal ridge
#

ppl leave midway? wtf

#

or do u mean before starting

silver snow
#

No ppl leave midway lol

#

Let’s say u have 2 offers, one starts in May and other in June, u find out when u start in May it sucks.

Obviously less often but they blacklist for that

tidal ridge
#

thats insane 😭

silver snow
#

No company cares bout u trust

#

So do wtv best for u always

tidal ridge
#

yea imma end up reneging something for c1

digital temple
#

for c1 or blacklisting c1 for something else
