I have a superday tomorrow for a top MM bank but, as you can probably guess from the subject of this thread, I have the flu. I thought it would be gone by now as I came down with symptoms a week ago, but apparently it hasn't completed its cycle.
Anyways, my question is how should I handle this in my interview tomorrow. I'm kind of drowsy because of the medicine I'm taking, and I have a nasty sounding cough. Basically I'm just a little bit slower than I normally am. Should I mention this to my interviewers so they just don't think I'm lifeless, or would this look like an excuse? I could also see them being pissed I came in to interview when I'm sick. I thought about calling the recruiting lady I had been talking with to see if I could push back my interview, but I figure I run the risk of losing an offer since everyone else will interview that day.
Any advice? This sucks so bad, I really want this job but I am just not going to be on top of my game during the interview like I normally would be.
I had the flu during a first round interview and I mentioned that I had the flu in the very beginning. I passed the first round and got to the final rounds but the first round was a phone interview so I couldnt get the interviewer sick. I would call HR and ask them because if I was interviewing a kid and he was hacking away and had the flu I wouldn't want to be anywhere near the kid.
What if she says to just not come? Then I have 0% of getting an offer.
One of my friends had the same issue. They just gave him a phone interview. I say it's better to call the lady than to risk pissing off the interviewers.
The best thing you can do right now is to get in touch with HR...the banks usually hold several Superdays so you could maybe reschedule.
