not HR but i said blackstone while referring to the firm in a blackrock interview
I mean technically you could call a rock a ‘stone’
Lmfao
Bro I swear to God....I did this exact same thing lmao
hahah me too
next time, just call it blackpebble. its technically correct and you might get away with it like when your wife/gf/mistress calls but you dunno who, you pick up and say "hi honey"
Spent first try looking up recent deal from BB, and second try reciting what I just read
The guy said, "fails," not "things I wish I did."
Does anyone in HR come to this website? Lol
So I tried to send in an application for JPM insights 30 mins for the deadline. After finishing the application I got the automatic HireVue request which I struggled to run as my laptop mic is rubbish.
10 mins left, so I quickly downloaded the app onto my iPhone, which is in Spanish—trying to immerse myself in a foreign language
Obviously I’m no Spanish speaker. I ended up speed reading the instructions and skipping to the questions. I knew what they were asking, but everything else was a bit murky. long story short, I stared blindly into the camera while thinking my answer out loud for the first question. Next, I pressed what I thought looked like “retry” and for the second question, I answered as I would the previous question.
Rest assured I withdrew my application shortly after....
Are you British?
