I was recently rejected at the CV screening stage after I passed the online assessment.
Unfortunatley there is no further feedback apart from the standard rejection e-mail. I had my profile reviewed before hand by MBB consultant and I had a referral from 2 consults for 2 different offices (I put 50/50).
Althouogh disappointed, I appreciate that the sheer volume of applicants plus current global climate probably hasn't helped. I'm not sure what to do next. Should I reach out to the respective individual HR member of each office for some feedback? Thank you.
Hi Francesco. I spoke with my contact briefly but he just said that it could have been the test. He said I should apply to other firms as my preparation will help. Then he wished me luck in future and that was that. It may be possible that perhaps he didn't refer me at all. I don't want to upset him by challenging him on this. He was quite good in general. If you think I should reach out then I can drop him a message to ask if its possible for him to investigate. I'm not sure how forthcoming he may be though..
Hi there, so if I understood correctly, it could have been the test. In any case, if the referral connection is not that good, you can skip the feedback request and possibly ask for a second opinion to someone else you trust to improve the CV. Hope this helps
