Based on the most helpful WSO content, it seems like you might be experiencing a common situation where firms take a long time to respond, or in some cases, do not respond at all. Here are some key points from similar experiences:

  • Long Wait Times: It's not uncommon for firms to take several months to get back to candidates, especially if you applied back in September and it's now mid-November.
  • Ghosting: Many users have reported being ghosted after interviews or applications, with no final decision communicated even after follow-ups.
  • Follow-Up: If you haven't already, consider sending a polite follow-up email to check on the status of your application. This can sometimes prompt a response.

Given the current time (mid-November 2024), it's reasonable to follow up once more if you haven't heard back since September. If there's still no response, it might be time to consider other opportunities while keeping this one in mind.
