Had a sd with Guggenheim a while back definitely could have gone better. Randomly noticed one of the MDs blocked me on LinkedIn afterward. Never spammed, followed up professionally, etc.
Anyone ever have this happen before? Is this just a normal “keep candidates at distance” thing or did I unknowingly commit some recruiting sin lmao

Damn I had the exact same experience, same bank but wasn’t blocked so idk
Not gunna name drop but he is a recent md promot so maybe he just un connected with everyone he hasn’t directly made a relationship with
What went wrong in the superday?
Did you puke on the guy.
Happened at a Lazard super day.
please do tell us more
In a very different time in investment banking, the analysts took the super day candidates out boozing the night before interview and one dude puked on the head of FIG banking the next day. Ended up working at UBS lol.
You’re definitely leaving something out of the story lmao
Charge it to the game and keep it pushing
sure u blocked? probably guy deleted his profile or hid it from strangers
hard to imagine an MD would even acknowledge you, let alon go out of his way to block you (unless you're leaving out the part where you spammed him like a dumbfuck...)
Connected with him and then 3 days later I see he unconnected with me and now when I search his name nothing comes up
Guy probably just went private
This. Happens all the time. I see no reason to engage in a preemptive strike against someone so junior, that hasn’t even reached out.
