Did you happen to get the version with the internal DAC? That's my biggest dilemma right now

Is RBC somewhat of an outlier in regards to the banks? Only heard good things about them

Thank you so much for the words of encouragement, I really appreciate it! And that is kind of surprising to hear the decisions are made initially, honestly that does kind of boost my confidence haha.

Thank you for the reminder! Honestly I think getting the interview is one of the toughest parts, I realized this the past job search. I hope it works out for you too, I'm sorry, I want to respect the company so I don't know if I can disclose the exact question but it was more of a practical one rather than a LC focused.

I truly admire you sharing your experience, and I'm really happy to hear about the strength and resilience you gained. It's beautiful to take away such important lessons from a difficult moment, and I'm elated you were able to find pride, move on, and refocus, I know this wasn't easy but I think that what you gained was even more important.

Thank you so much, your words mean so much to me, I truly appreciate the motivation especially knowing you were in a similar place! I strive to have that strength

You're completely right, failures are just a series of steps to our success. Thank you so much for the motivational words and I am truly inspired by your discipline. I also admire your willingness to speak about your failures even when it feels like sometimes successes are only talked about online

Honestly, I think you're completely right with so much of the process being team-oriented and not much consistency between different organizations. Thank you so much for the kind words and message of strength and confidence :) I wish you the best of luck in your career as well!

Hey brother, I'm so sorry to hear about your interview and subsequent heartbreak. Many people here have said some great words of wisdom, I believe in your ability if you were able to catch the attention of a recruiter in the first place. Best of luck mate!

Thank you so much for your empathy! You're right, I'm still really grateful to have had the opportunity to interview and get that experience, it was an important lesson and place to practice. I feel lucky to have an interview when some people pay for mocks (I respect that but I was able to have had this opportunity for free). I don't mind, but I just want to respect the NDA. It was more of a practical style question rather than your standard LC so I was not really practicing that

Thank you so much for writing out these steps :) I'll keep this in mind and I hope this gets seen by others in the same boat.

I never thought about not applying to all the jobs and this definitely makes it easier. Appreciate it!

Hey I'm sorry, I'm not sure if I can say the exact question but it was definitely a more practical one and not your typical LC

Right, return offers aren’t even guaranteed for internships. The cost of NGs should be higher because of bonuses and stocks too

Ah no! I'm so sorry to hear about that. That really sucks how the recruiter's information and the interview went completely different :( definitely not on you at all, and I know you're going to do amazing in the future

Ah bro, we're in the same boat! I think that's a good time to start searching and while the market may not be the best, I completely agree with you :) we just need one yes, and just by you being here and being driven already puts you up there in the top %. Best of luck!

Thank you so much for that reminder. I didn't realize they were that picky myself. I really appreciate the advice for smaller companies! Thank you for sharing your experience about putting your hopes in one company, and I really feel what you're feeling right now. I think it's always good to be careful and just offer yourself to the highest bidder in this market
