Went to my first Superday yesterday. I think I had solid rapport with everyone and answered most of the technicals well (got nervous on the first one and had to re-calibrate, but would not think this would be a deal breaker).
I emailed the hiring director/manager today to thank her for coordinating the day, and her response (summarized) was: “Thanks for coming in, we all enjoyed meeting you. We have to finish up some other interviews but will be in touch”.
Am I overthinking it, or is this a bad sign? My gut tells me that they have essentially placed me in a holding tank and are waiting to see if they prefer someone else over the next week or so. I am not expecting an offer based on this.
Thoughts?
All you can do is chill, don't worry about it more than you already are there's no point
You’re overthinking it.
If you don't get a phone call by day 3...
Yep, if no call by today I am assuming no offer
You can never tell with HR, but it sounds like you’re in a decent position
Yeahhhh interviewed Tuesday and didn’t hear back all week. Gut is telling me they offered someone else and are waiting to hear back. Oh well💁🏻♂️
You should place more importance on the technical part unless you have a great personality, are attractive or have strong connections. Flunking early on a technical could easily get you axed if you don’t meat the aforementioned criteria
Don't worry/overthink too much! I think the hiring manager's response is pretty normal and her tone sounds neutral. Personally, I had experience being too nervous for one of my technical questions as well and asked for a few seconds to re-calibrate, and it certainly wasn't a deal-breaker because I managed to proceed to the second round of interviews, and I got the offer in the end!
I was boned :’)
Onto the next!
