Hey guys,
I work at a big tech channel partner, and the reps/management I work with at said big tech company have been trying to get me on their team since July.
Something finally opened up in region, met with the Manager last week and they want me to take it. Then the Director called me and said that the rumor mill says a hiring freeze is coming, so they need me in now.
Both Director & Manager tell the recruiter they've already interviewed me(not true, but they know pretty well), recruiter says the final step will be a personality interview, but I have to take an assessment first.
5 PM on Friday I breezed through the assessment so that she could book the interview for Monday. Yesterday I received an automated email saying that I failed the assessment, and can't reapply for the company for 6 months.
I was shocked that I failed - do yall think I'm fucked here? Would you fight it? Has anyone ever done this and gotten the opportunity to retake it? Do you think I should go to the Director and ask for help here?
The recruiter is supposed to follow up with me this evening - any advice?
-------------------------------
Update - recruiting did try to kill my application, but the Director went to the recruiters boss and got my application through to the final round. Finished up the interview yesterday. TY for listening here, & fuck those stupid tests.
