Interview: Not the Usual Question
I am starting a long-term internship at a Middle-Market bank next Monday.
I also happened to have a final round at a top BB this week, but the MD who is responsible for hiring decided to spend an additional week snorkeling in the Bahamas.
The final round at BB therefore got postponed to Wednesday next week, i.e. the third day of my MM internship. Ouch, this looks like a problem.
Can I ask to reschedule my final round (and how do I go about telling them)? Should I ask them to interview me on Saturday or Sunday? Should I ask them to do all 3 final round interviews in the evening (I know that I will be finishing work at 4-5PM during the first week). Can I just miss my third day at work (hmm, probably not)?
I really appreciate your help (and will give out all the SB).
Tough one. Interested to see the responses.
Tell the MM you have an important appointment that you weren't able to reschedule. Nobody is going to waste their Sat/Sun interviewing some kid
Bump.
(One last desperate) bump.
To be honest, I would just try and work it out at your MM. Don't put it on the BB to reschedule as it can act as a risk or inconvenience. I'd just go with important Doc appointment or meeting with Professor or something.
And please do not ask them to reschedule for Saturday/Sunday lol.
I would not take the risk and reschedule interview lol.
Say that you have to move houses and therefore have to take wednesday off ;)
Haha no way an MD is going to interview you on the weekend. I think the right move would have been to tell the BB that wednesday doesn't work in the first place. If you have agreed it will look bad to try to reschedule. Gotta find an excuse for why you need to leave MM for a couple of hours
Don't ask the BB to reschedule. And don't you even think about asking them to interview you on a weekend.
As others have said, come up with an excuse like a doc appt or something. The MM will be more understanding.
Take a day off.
I thought this was actually going to be interesting because of the thread subject, but no, just another question that requires only common sense to answer.
