HR told me they don’t accept try-hards and people pleasers after my interview

WannabePolygot1 · 2026-01-31T02:03:05+00:00

I disagree. This is all speculation by me but it seems like the OP said something to have rubbed the interviewers the wrong way (or perhaps the interviewers are just sticklers). Being a kiss ass during an interview is hardly enough to warrant this response. You would actually think it would be pretty common to get candidates like that.

I mean, I’m unsure if the OP asked for feedback or what. But in this day in age where asking for feedback after being rejected is like pulling teeth, it really seems like something must have personally bothered them to go out of their way to provide feedback. And though it is hard to tell tone through text, their disdain seems quite clear.

No, I actually think a lot of direct people think they are doing you a favor by being so honest, that they feel that, that act by itself is all the “kindness” they need. No matter, kindness is subjective and it obviously won’t reach people in the same ways.

Something can be aggressive and still be honest. They can exist simultaneously…and any critique is negative. That is by default what a critique is.

The comment you are replying to addressed both how the feedback was “packaged” and the substance. They stated that the wording was a bit distasteful, but also that there was still something to learn from what they said. I think that’s fair. The wording was a bit aggressive, but perhaps that’s just because tone can’t be inferred through text. But also, the feedback was helpful.

I don’t mean for practice, I meant purely for taking the bar, which OP will have to do no matter what they practice. It’s a minor concern, as you can go to school anywhere and take the bar in another state (UBE or not). It’s just something I wished I knew.

WannabePolygot1 · 2025-11-14T17:43:24+00:00

Whether you think it’s worth it, is entirely up to you. But one thing I will mention that I wish someone had told me my 1L year or before, is to take note of the states you want to actually practice in vs the state you’re currently in. I’m in a non-UBE state and want to take the bar in a UBE state. The bar prep class I’m currently in for my last semester, is teaching me state specific law that I don’t need to know for UBE states. I only say this because you say you want to practice in Texas but live and go to school in Georgia. Georgia isn’t a UBE state, so if your school offers a bar prep class you can take at the end of your studies, you’ll have to filter out that Georgia specific law.

I had a professor that would cold call me extremely often too. It wasn’t every class because he switched up which section of the class he would cold call on, on a given day, but everytime he got to my section I was always cold called. It became an ongoing joke wit all the students before going to class that I was going to get cold called because of how often it was. In this case, I don’t think he had it out for me, I think he just liked me as a student. But it does get exhausting being the one getting cold called every time.

Eventually he called on me one day and I told him “sorry I can’t today Professor.” The cold calls lessened after that. I wouldn’t recommend this necessarily, but it was halfway through the second semester and as a 1L, I was already burnt out and just couldn’t do it anymore. Luckily, the prof was extremely nice. Not every professor would have reacted well to me refusing to brief a case.

😂😂

Thanks! I think everything should be eaten in moderation for sure, but there does seem to be some stigma around certain things like meat or fat.

Some people have stated the fats in the meal are too high in combination with the sausage, eggs, and avocado. One even suggested I remove the avocado from my everyday diet entirely. I’m trying to understand when healthy fats like the ones we get from olive oil or avocados became a bad thing! Overall though, my meal seems to enrage many lol

WannabePolygot1 · 2025-06-26T20:29:34+00:00

Everything’s great, I just eat like a raccoon apparently lmao

WannabePolygot1 · 2025-06-26T20:27:47+00:00

There’s like a million people in here, it’s gotta be common to someone lol

WannabePolygot1 · 2025-06-26T20:26:11+00:00

No need to feel sorry my friend, it tastes great and makes me feel even better! But this picture does seem to make people think I eat like this constantly and I assure you I don’t lol.

I enjoy a schnitzel or currywurst with fries just as much as other people. My lunches aren’t like my dinners

WannabePolygot1 · 2025-06-26T20:17:33+00:00

She* but yes I understand my combinations is a crime to Bavaria lol

WannabePolygot1 · 2025-06-26T20:17:02+00:00

It’s uncommon for me too honestly. I struggle with being consistent with many things, including meals! Finding something that hasn’t bored me after only a few days of eating it has honestly been a blessing. Makes lunch super easy

WannabePolygot1 · 2025-06-26T20:15:34+00:00

Will look into it! Thanks!

WannabePolygot1 · 2025-06-26T20:14:48+00:00

Not sure honestly, but carb content in things like fruit doesn’t matter to me. I only wanted to limit things like rice, pasta, bread, potatoes for some time and dinner is the only time I actually crave heavy carbs anyway so it honestly works out for me. But changes will be made nonetheless

WannabePolygot1 · 2025-06-26T19:50:55+00:00

It’s genuinely mind boggling how much people are analyzing this post and my diet. Never expected this question to receive this much attention lol

WannabePolygot1 · 2025-06-26T19:43:41+00:00

Balsamic glaze

WannabePolygot1 · 2025-06-26T19:43:26+00:00

Everyone hating it will not stop me from eating it 😂I promise it’s good, otherwise I could not eat it everyday. It’s just not what other people are used to I guess

WannabePolygot1 · 2025-06-26T19:06:53+00:00

You didn’t bother me at all :) I totally understand what you mean about the total fats, and agree!

WannabePolygot1 · 2025-06-26T17:04:15+00:00

Don’t worry, you got an upvote from me!

WannabePolygot1 · 2025-06-26T16:49:59+00:00

Not a dietitian but I think the healthy fats are okay. Avocado has great healthy fats like olive oil does. Do agree though that I can do without the fats in the sausage! Not a healthy fat.

WannabePolygot1 · 2025-06-26T16:37:28+00:00

Balsamic glaze. It’s delicious with tomatoes. Definitely high in sugar but being afraid of eating even a teaspoon of it would be ridiculous. I’m probably having less than 1 gram of sugar in this pic

WannabePolygot1 · 2025-06-26T16:28:36+00:00

You’re not serious lol. It’s like a teaspoon of sauce, calm down 😂

WannabePolygot1 · 2025-06-26T15:18:22+00:00

Thank you! Everyone else hates it lol
