VP Interview
I have been interviewing for an analyst position at a boutique (Evercore/PJT/Centerview- one of those 3) for the past month. My first 5 interviews went really well and the feedback was fairly positive. I had an interview with a VP yesterday and he was a total prick. Picked apart any move I made and was generally negative. Was a fairly rude individual and asked offensive questions. Does anyone have success stories after one bad round? How much stock will the hiring manager put in the POS's opinion?
I had a similar expirence with an Associate at a BB. I ended up getting an offer despite that guy seemingly being a douche. My take is that some interviewers want to pressure/ challenge you to see how you respond to criticism, so if you were confident in your answers and kept your shit together I think you'll be fine. GL
I had an interview when I was going for junior year internship. Went well with all the associates and HR people, then met a VP who grilled me on everything and seemed to just want to argue with me no matter what. I thought I was never going to work there after that, but then got the offer. I think it’s just them testing how you handle stress or problems.
Can you provide some additional context around how they were rude or questions were inappropriate?
how did you manage to secure interviews at these places ? are you a lateral analyst?
I work at one or the bank nyc office and we interviewed a few people this week. All well/over qualified candidates. Just be yourself and do best you can.
Can you give a few examples of offensive questions that you were asked?
