Yeah so as the title says I got rejected during an interview. They didn’t even wait for it to be finished they just rejected me right then and there, didn’t even ask any technical questions. That’s how you know it’s over lol, I will never break in. Still wondering how common is this?

Apparently didn’t know how to answer “why this bank specifically?” and she said I might not be a good fit.
lmfao me and few others had the exact same experience. no idea why she is gatekeeping this much tbh
I think they're definitely being overly harsh. Some banks just want you to lick they're a*ss. Keep your head up, you did well to get this far anyway.
lol name and shame them that's foul behaviour
Let me give you a hint: 🦁
