Overwhelming majority of companies have policies where they won't disclose anything in feedback but you lose nothing by asking – I'd say it's better to ask the interviewers themselves vs. a recruiter.

Still boils down to feedback-related, so chances are they wouldn't honor any aspect of that depending on the company. I once did something similar and was met with serious resistance for even engaging in contact.

Given where you stand though, you have nothing to lose yes give it a shot considering there is infinite upside and zero downside.

I had a phone screen with a BB earlier this year. I was given 10 behaviorals and 3 technicals. I crushed the behaviorals. The 3 technicals were easy basic accounting and valuation questions. Like word for word out of one of the guides. Bombed 1 out of the 3 questions. Like truly demonstrated that I had no idea how to connect the 3 financial statements.

BUT I followed up with an email talking about my nerves over the phone and that my poor answer was not a result of a lack of knowledge or preparation but instead a being nervous over the phone and that I could better demonstrate my skills in person. I also included a detailed write up of the correct answer. I asked politely without begging to still be considered due to this.

Got the final round. Got the offer. Accepted the offer.

Anything can happen
