Had super day for top choice last week (Tuesday). Haven’t heard anything yet, though nobody has posted on LinkedIn of receiving an offer. The super day went extremely well, probably my best interview I’ve ever done.
I have a super day in NY on Tuesday, though I’m hoping I won’t have to make the trip.
Is this worth reaching out to inquire about application status? Or is that too over-bearing?
Thanks

SA or FT?
Anything over a day is 99% of the time a ding. Unless first choice doesn’t accept.

Move on mentally, focus on the next one.
Send an email to whomever your point of contact or whomever you connected the most with once it hits the one week mark asking the timeline for the decision, but for SA’s it doesn’t take this long.
I would do the other superday regardless.
Best case situation - you get a call from the MD/VP/Associate, saying that you got it, and that they were just delayed. For reference, I've gotten offers that were not day of, but under a week. Congratulations, you're done. You go to this next superday, be respectful, wait the one day to email HR saying you got a competiting offer that you plan on taking, and you're done.
Worst case situation - they ghost you. And now you need a new SA.
So do the superday, be respectful, hope for the best, but mentally prepare for the worst.
