Superday - Was I rejected?

I had a final round for a consulting firm last Friday.

I sent out the typical "thank you" e-mail to the interviewers and recruiter. I heard back from one of the interviewers on Monday that it was a pleasure to meet me and that HR will be contacting me later this week.

Well, this week is pretty much over. After the first round, they contacted me after a week at 8 PM on a Friday so I guess not all hope is lost, but do you think I'm screwed?

I'm going through the EXACT same situation and same scenario and same timeline lol. Waiting anxiously by the phone right now.

 

same here... they got back to me pretty fast for the 2nd (final) round. but it's been a week and haven't heard back yet...

 

Still haven't heard anything... It sucks I can't ask anyone if they heard back since I was the only candidate from my school to be at the final round.

 

Contacts your campus or HR rep, tell them your trying figure out what the deal is you got 2 other offers but you need know how long to wait so your not screwed

 

Enjoy your weekend, no point worrying about it.
