How long to decide FT real estate offer?
I am a current student coming out of undergrad and am wondering how long I generally would have to decide on a FT offer if I was given it. I have a final round interview coming up for a large institutional investment firm, but also have other firms I am interested in and, ideally, would like to get enough time to decide on one offer and shoot for another firm who has an extended recruitment timeline. Personal experience and advice would be appreciated. Thanks!
So take this with a grain of salt because I have only had 2 jobs in my career and it has been a while since I've switched jobs so it might be different now, but typically we give 3-5 business days so we can make our own quick decision to give offers to other candidates if our first choice chooses not to accept. Everyone understands that candidates are interviewing with multiple companies and have people in their lives to think about (significant others, family, etc.) so they are willing to give some time but they also have their own timelines to think about. If their first choice takes a couple weeks to make a decision, their second choice might already accept another job or they themselves might take a couple weeks and by then your own candidate pool continually shrinks and shrinks.
If you like the company and the only reason to hold off accepting is because you want to see if you get a better offer, I would just take the large institutional job coming out of college and not leave a bad taste in your new boss' mouth about hiring you.
no one is going to know how long each individual company gives. To be helpful though, my job gives 2-3 days for full times, 1-2 days for interns
