2 weeks = no hope?
Final interview 9 business days ago. No major hiccups. Partner said team will be in touch in the next day or two.
It’s been 9 business days. Emailed HR last week - advised they’re ‘aiming’ to be in touch by the end of this week.
Coming to the end of this week - no outcome yet.
Context is off cycle but heavy expansion phase, T2 firm.
Any chance of a good outcome??
Yes, it's possible for a good outcome. There are plenty of potential mundane reasons for a delay, and from outside-in it is impossible to guess or predict what's happening
Good luck!
Yeah there could just be some one-off reason for a delay. I wouldn't give up hope yet.
Similar situation (but not for consulting) so wishing you good luck!
For what it's worth, I waited an entire month after my final round before being offered my current role. Nerve-wracking, but no news is sometimes good news.
Thanks. Nerve wrecking indeed. It’s week 3 now and HR just told me they’re still ‘collating feedback from my interviewers’. Wut!
Thank you! Did you reach out to them for feedback along the way?
Yes totally possible for a good outcome - recruiting can come to a complete pause for a few days if some of the senior folks leading the recruiting phase get tied up with client/ internal firm work. good luck!
Its also worth noting that you could be placed on a wait-list kind of thing and they are waiting to see if people accept their offers before going to you. Don't give up hope :)
Hey everyone just wanted to update - I got the offer! They were really busy with recruiting at the level just below mine (undergrad campus) and apologized for the delay. Got the happy call today :) Thanks all for the reassurance, made it less nerve wrecking.
