Recruiter said I'd hear back within a week. It's been two weeks now. Should I reach out?
Hi everyone,
I think the title says it all. I had a final round interview for a spring insight programme in the UK. 2.5 weeks ago, an HR rep and a banker did my final round interview and I thought it went well. They told me at the end that they were still interviewing candidates and would get back to me with a decision at the end of the following week (interview was on a Wednesday). By now, however, they're more than one week late and on other forums, there are people claiming that they already got an offer. One person said (s)he got their offer yesterday - no idea when the interview of that person was, though.
Now, I'm not sure what to make of that. After all, they wanted to get back to me with a decision by the end of last week so if they had made up their mind about rejecting me, I don't see a reason why they wouldn't have told me by now. On the other hand, if they have already sent out offers, maybe they don't bother sending out the rejections? Maybe I was good but not as good as other candidates and they want to see a couple more alternatives?
What's your take on this, should I send a quick email asking them politely when I can expect to hear back? Thank you in advance.
Have you emailed them already? If not, sure, send an email off asking for an update.
Prepare yourself now though, it’s more likely than not that you’ve been dinged.
