Bro what on earth are randos on this board supposed to tell you? Are we the hiring manager? Go into it preparing for a courteous rejection so you’re pleasantly surprised if it’s not. End of story lmao
Lmfao
I’ve never had a rejection call, always an email or nothing.
Only similar call I’ve had was a rescinded offer, which was bonecrushing to hear as I already received a verbal offer.
do you know what happened to get the rescinded offer? was it just bad markets and timing
Someone from another group internally was promised the job that I was given. The MD interviewing me and giving me the job didn’t know about this promise until after he gave me the verbal offer. It came down from some executive really high at the company and the MD had to give the job to the internal hire. He told me on the phone he would have preferred me over the person they sent to him. But, he said his hands were tied.
I've only been rejected once by phone call, and it was the day after my super day. Feel like it's been way too long for them to call now and reject, unless maybe you were waitlisted? Otherwise this could be good news, e.g. someone reneged their offer
