How long to wait for reply?
Had a phone interview last Friday for IBD at a BB. Thought it went well, but I haven't heard back yet.
During the interview, I asked "Is there anything else I can do to clarify my experience or interest?" Interviewer said, "Nope, I think I have a very good picture of you. The only thing for you at this point is to get you to talk to more people here." I sent a thank you email. Interviewer replied, "Was a pleasure. Keep me posted on how things go."
However, I haven't heard back with a rejection or acceptance. How long should this take? Should I ask HR for a response?
Not trying to be an ass here but did calling them ever come to mind?
That definitely has come to mind, but I'm not sure if it is appropriate at this point in time, if I should email first, or what. I also cannot tell now if I received positive feedback or not... I thought I did, but the fact that I haven't heard back is bad news. Should I call, email, or wait a day or two first?
i would definitely wait longer - these things can take a while, especially after a first round (speaking form personal experience).
if the first round was last friday (2/25) i'd wait until at least next tuesday (3/8) to follow up - and at that point, i'd email before calling.
they clearly seem to have gotten a good impression of you, it just can take them a while to be ready for the next round - they might need to do a bunch more phone screens, or they might be traveling for the next few weeks, or really busy on a deal, etc etc - check in after a week and a bit
I would definitely use the search function as this thread is posted literally daily
Call and say: Hi xxyy; Thanks again for taking the time to speak with me last week, I was unsure where we left things and was wondering if you could let me know where you guys are at in the interview process and if I am even a candidate any longer.
