So 4/5 interviews had gone well, one didn't go very well. Could I still get an offer?

    Serious answer: if you feel one of your 5 interviews didn’t go well, then it’s not great news. Typically companies will look at 8-20 people for the final round for a single position. Most of the time, 75% of the candidates are all very smart and would excel at the job, but they have to end up picking just one. So keep that in mind...even if you blow the interview out of the water, they may end up choosing someone with particular experience or skills that puts them over the edge for the pool of strong candidates.

    This just happened to me lol

    If it's any consolation- I once had an interview (with an old employer) that I thought went horribly. The interviewer kept pushing me to go one way with my answer & I completely, but respectfully, disagreed with him. It was my last conversation of the day, with the team's director, and I left thinking there was no way in hell I'd get the job. Apparently he was a "strong yes" 🤷‍♀️

    If it was your potential manager, probably not. If it was a subject matter expert, and it wasn’t anything too egregious, you’ll be fine.
