Do they ask for proof if you reschedule an interview?

Hi, if I'm planning to reschedule my interview at an MBB, will they ask for proof like medical certificate if I say I'm sick?

Hi there,

I have never heard of this before, you should be fine. That said, please only say this if you are sick. Better to be honest in this world

I highly doubt it where I would be shocked if they did.

Hey there,

No. It's quite common for candidates to reschedule on short notice and it is usually not a problem. No proof will be required.

Cheers,

Florian
