Hi guys, recently went for an interview with a somewhat reputable MNC that left a sour taste in my mouth:

Throughout the interview, the interviewer kept probing and questioning how "committed" I am to the company. He repeatedly mentioned that they want individuals who "are not the type to leave after a few years" because they will "pour resources to developing talent" so as not to let these resources go to waste. Moreover, he mentioned that he and the firm "expects alot" from the new hires, and how he will "throw you into the deep end and expect you to rise to the occasion and swim". Lastly, he asked me how I can "prove to him" that I am that dedicated and committed individual that the company is looking for.

Is this a red flag or is this a normal part of recruitment today, given the amount of job hoppers from Gen Zs?

Feel free to share your stories as well and how they turned out. Thanks!

25M FCH Engineering grad from a local big 3 uni here. I recently received job offers from both DSTA and DSO as an Engineer. Both organisations pay very well (6-7k) range but I also know that since Im a farmer I wont be promoted so quickly. Im aware that DSTA is more PM while DSO is more technical.

1. Which offer should I accept? I am not too keen on super technical roles as I don't want to limit my career options in the future to be purely engineering.
2. What are the exit opportunities for each organisation? I heard proj management has alot of transferrable skills, anyone can chip in thanks.
