How long does it take for BB to give an offer after the final-round interview?

Greetings, Newbie here, I hope I posted at the right forum! Just wondering do you have any insights on the hiring process of GS (particularly ER?) or other BB (which perhaps can be a proxy?)?

-How long does it normally take from the final round to eventually getting the offer/rejection news? -Will they reject other final-round candidates before confirming a place for the hired candidate? -How many candidates do you think there are in the final stage? -Any other insights you can share?

Thanks so much.

Rejections are usually 1-3 days, offers depend, if they really liked you a lot of times they will contact you a few hours or a day after the interview, and sometimes if they are deciding it could be 4 days- 2 weeks to get an acceptance.

 

What Gronk said is correct. If you do not hear back the same day or at least by the next morning chances aren't looking good.

 

normally, the HR will contact you or they will just email you with a written offer? should i call HR to ask for status?
