Follow Up or Keep Waiting? (Senior Analyst Role – Real Estate)
Hey everyone — looking for some advice on timing here.
I’m in process for a Senior Financial Analyst role at a real estate development firm. Everything had been going smoothly — I had a first-round interview with the Director of Finance, then completed and submitted a modeling test by the deadline (Friday, April 4).
I followed up with the Finance Director on April 10 to check in, and he responded the next day saying he was very impressed with my model and would follow up early the next week.
Separately, HR also mentioned they expected to circle back with me by the Thursday before Easter.
Since then, I haven’t heard anything. I know last week was short due to the holiday, and I’ve held off on following up again because I didn’t want to seem impatient — but now that we’re into Tuesday, I’m debating whether to check in or wait a bit longer.
Would you follow up now or give it more time?
Appreciate any input — thank you!
If you were told by HR that you would hear back and you haven’t yet, I wouldn’t feel embarrassed to ask them for a follow up.
I sent a friendly follow up to the finance director. I hope i don't come as too pushy...
Wait til EOW
I couldn't resist and send a friendly follow up to the finance director. I hope i don't come as too pushy
Don't think it will, he'll see it and if they really want you think ok let me check in internally. If not they'll just keep ghosting you most likely lol.
