I interviewed for an IBD position about 2 and a half weeks ago and have yet to hear back from HR regarding a superday/2nd round. My interviewer, who was also one of the people I networked with, has responded to both of my update requests with uncertainty, saying that he doesn't know the timeline.
Is it appropriate to reach out directly to HR in this instance or is it time to take the L?
