Hey guys,
If you don't hear back the day after your superday that meant you were not given an offer right?

Would wait a few days. Relax.
This is for a lateral hiring and not anything structured recruiting btw. I am very nervous and really really want this opportunity. The interviewers asked what my timeline was (whether I am looking to move immediately), so nothing everything is lost yet right?
If it is not structured than it could take more time. Mine was totally non-structured at JPM/MS/GS. They extended offer like 2 weeks after the superday. I totally had lost hope and thought they were calling me to two weeks later to talk about superday traveling reimbursement, to only later realize that they called to extend an offer.
Wait it out.
Was this for lateral hiring or 1st year right after college? I am transitioning from something totally different from IBD too so don't know how this works.
Regardless, just wait it out.
Thanks, I will try to - but it is definitely nerve-wracking.
I sent thank you notes too and no one replied.
They are interviewing other people for the same position. When they are done interviewing everyone they will get together and decide. It could be anywhere from one day to weeks.
What above poster said. Could take some time - no news in this case isn't necessarily bad news. Don't expect replies to thank you emails - I've actually only received replies when I've been rejected by firms (interviewers feeling bad?) and have not received replies (for the most part) from interviewers at firms where I got the offer.
If it is more than a week without a single week then I guess game over right? When should I reach back to the interviewers again?
Should I reach back to my interviewers or there is no point since they probably decided to drop my case? It has been exactly 1 week.
Chill dude. Email your HR rep after a week or so. Then just leave it be.
Yeah I really want to chill too but, well to me my job matters alot.
Is the timeline for lateral (non-campus) hiring longer than a few weeks and is this normal at other places?
I think this is the first time that none of my interviewers ever even not responded with a simple email say Thank You or something of the like. My alum, who organized the meetings, was super friendly and responsive on the phone and on emails before we met and was quite nice when I met him last week.
I've never had anyone reply to a follow up thank you email. One week is nothing.
I'm assuming you haven't interviewed for very many jobs up to this point. I've never had anyone respond to a thank you email and for responses, 1 week is pretty quick in terms of a timeline. They have other stuff on their plate; you're not the only party involved. Just relax, you'll hear either way.
Thanks guys. I have only interviewed for SA and 1st year entry level positions and this is my first lateral recruiting position. For SAs and 1st year positions, 1 week was a long time so I was assuming the timeline is similar for post-college recruiting.
Keeping my fingers crossed. Thanks guys.
