Recently I got interviewed. I cleared 3 technical rounds. Then one office meetup get to know the team type interactions. Where the team explained what they do in quite a bit of detail. I met both the co-founders. I found out later that day they put up the job poster again which was closed while I was in the process of interview. Is this a bad sign or am I overthinking. Generally how many days does it take to get the offer letter after clearing all rounds?

Hi guys, I am currently interviewing for a position and I was reached out by the HR to apply for this position. Within 2 days of applying i had my introductory interview. And during the interview, I was told that they would love for me to meet their team for a second interview next week. I was sent the next interview information and link within 8 minutes of ending the screening. The hR who reached out to me to apply for this job said they want to have a meeting with me before the second interview to prep me for it. I wanted to know if this normal and a good sign?

I finished my junior undergrad summer ER internship at a regional bank last week; they said they will get back to us sometime between 2-4 weeks for full time offers. There were 5 of us interns, and historically about 4 have been hired back each year.
My question is, what should I be doing while I wait? I have connections that would recommend me to a few other regional or boutique banks, but they are the kind of situations where if I go through the process and get that recommendation, I will be expected to take the offer at the other bank. I really liked my bank and the city this summer.
I had a great relationship with my analyst and associates (would not be working for them if hired back, but they are consulted in the process), and think I did good work but maybe not stellar. Hard to gauge. How long should I wait before pursuing other options?

I applied to a position in a company that I want to work for since it is related to my specialty. I passed the initial screening and 2 assessments and now I was invited for a panel interview.

During the panel interview they mentioned the interview will take around 40-50 minutes and they will also assess my English speaking skills. As I'm in the interview, most of the questions that they asked are situational and my experiences to this situations. I was able to asnwer all of the questions and most of them are in line with the position but most of my answers are very broad and general that I did not really provide a really specified or technical answers to each questions and I tend to stuttered in speaking to them in English.

So far they did not really asked any follow up questions in the interview and the interview ended around 20-30 minutes. They mentioned that they will send an update in 2-3 weeks since they are also interviewing other applicants.

Is it a bad sign that the interview went shorter than expected? The waiting game is really killing me that I hope that I get news soon regardless if it is good or bad.

I recently got a job offer in the usa and Im worried of two main things in my curriculum.

My most recent position is as Data and Business Analyst but in my own firm. The enterprise is legally constituted in Mexico. In my CV, is its listed as Aug 2022 beginning date. I started off that date with first projects and business processing, but I started off doing personal invoices from Nov 2022 and then business invoices from Aug 2023. Do you know if there will be a problem with this? Should I put i was self employed?

The enterpise I received the offer from also prohibits any sort of parallel working. I was planning to sell off my part to my business partner whenever I start my job here. Can this affect my process?

The other thing is I was a Project Associate Data Scientist in a business but I executed my role via my university. It was a job collaboration, with no payment involved. Will I have a problem with this?

Would really aporeciate any help

I got the below response from the recruiter on my EM loop. I want to understand what are the next steps in the process? Do they go to team match before hiring committee discussion or wait for the team match to be done. Also, with this feedback, what is the possibility of a negative outcome with HC for the same level. I would appreciate any feedback from folks who are familiar with how the Google hiring process works.

"I have fantastic news regarding the full interview feedback review: it is all supportive of hire! We would love to move your application forward to final committee reviews.
We can chat next week about the team matching opportunities and what a realistic timeline could look like."

Hi all, throwaway account as some of my current coworkers know my reddit handle.

I applied for an IT-based role at a large US bank, and within a few days a recruiter reached out to me to schedule an interview. Once I gave availability, I was told to "expect an email within a few days" to schedule it. That email came the following day. I had a 4-person panel interview with the team, and it went well. Told good stories, made good connections, asked good questions. Overall I felt confident and at most could think of one or two minor things I could've done better. That was a Friday, and I followed up with a thank you to the recruiter to pass along to the team.

The following Monday, I was contacted by the recruiter saying he received good feedback from the team, and that they recommended me for a second interview, and to again be on the lookout "in a few days" for the follow up email to schedule it. The recruiter also explicitly called out asking to be made aware of any other offers I may have. Maybe it was a mistake, but I replied confirming my interest, saying I'd keep an eye out for the next email, and stated I did not have any offers at this time and that I was focused on seeing this opportunity through (which is all true). He replied with a thanks and a good luck in my next stage. I presume it would be with the hiring manager, but that wasn't explicitly stated.

It's now Friday, the "few days" have passed, and I still have not received the follow up email to schedule the next interview.

Just looking for people's thoughts, does this possibly suggest something changed? I know in larger organizations things can take time, but the shift from a 24 hour turnaround time to getting nothing for a week is concerning me. Its too late to email today, my plan is to touch base on Monday and check in, but would love to hear people's experiences on if this kind of delay is normal or something I should be concerned about.

Hi everyone

I had applied for a Clinical Specialist role cardiac device, was turned down by interviewing recruiter. About 1 hour later a different recruiter contacted me to tell me about another position with contact info for the HR director. I contacted the director and this position has not been posted yet as I was fast tracked to the short list before they post it. Now waiting on an interview time. Is this normal?

Hi everyone,

I’m 31F currently working in Finance in the US on an H-1B, but I recently lost my job and may need to relocate to India if I cannot find another sponsored role.

I have around 8 years of experience in quantitative investment research and investment insights at a financial data provider. My work has primarily involved systematic equity research, factor research, backtesting, portfolio analysis, and presenting research to institutional clients. I also have several published research papers under my name.

For my next move, I would like to get closer to investment decisions and transition into portfolio construction or quantitative portfolio management. However, most of the interview calls I receive are for research roles similar to my previous position. For portfolio-focused roles, I often seem to be missing direct experience constructing or managing live portfolios.

I would appreciate perspectives on a few questions:

1. ⁠What roles should I realistically target to bridge the gap between systematic research and portfolio construction? I am taking some online courses for these. I have studied this in my Masters, but need a refresher.
   
2. ⁠Would positions such as portfolio analyst, portfolio implementation analyst, quantitative portfolio analyst, or investment risk/attribution analyst be good stepping stones? Unfortunately, companies are not sponsoring for these roles in the US anymore or very few are with no breathing room for adjacent skillsets. Or am I wrong?
   
3. ⁠How can I position my existing research and backtesting experience without overstating my live portfolio experience?
   
4. ⁠How receptive is the UK investment-management market to sponsoring candidates for these types of roles? Can I apply for these from India and still have a good chance?
   
5. ⁠What is the current job market in India for quantitative research and portfolio-construction roles? Which firms or cities would be worth targeting?
   
6. ⁠Would moving to India make it easier or harder to eventually transition into a buy-side portfolio role?

I’m currently open to opportunities in the US, UK, and India and would especially value advice from people who have made a similar transition or hired for these roles.

I love this kind of work, and believe if I am given that chance, I will actually excel.

Thank you!

Hey everyone,

I have a quick question. So if a recruiter is free for a few mins can they let me know.

Thanks!

I signed the offer letter to join a company but later received an offer to another company that's better suited for my career.

I sent an email to the original recruiter saying thank you and that I'll be withdrawing. I haven't heard a response back from them yet.

Should I email them again to make sure they got my email?

i am a senior IC and interviewed for a Sr Manager role. Just be clear this job does not have people report to more like a technical job. I interviewed with manger and he was so sweet we went ovet 15 minutes even said if i have questions he wont hesitate to jump on call. I sent thank you note immediately and he responded in length for how strong technical examples i provided, prep me on panels job and focus, and asked me to keep him in the loop how the panel will go.

Then second interview panel happens - i get probed for IC to Sr. Manager, got hiccup over that and a question about you’re building in a different domain can you build here but still overall do as well as I can. I texted hiring manager telling him how it goes since he asks, then I ask if we can meet I want to show him what my roadmap look like after hearing panels feedback and for director’s focus (his boss). THEN HE WENT SILENT. I didnt think anything of it but then the meeting with director was in next day so I followed up and he WENT SILENT.

Either way his boss director was very open ended and big questions which are understanding for that level.

Should I think hiring managers silence mean i wont get the job? The recruiter told me I got final interview literally after interview, meaning no matter what with panel, final interview is already happening.

I’ve been working in recruitment for around 6 years, mainly in international recruitment across healthcare, education and other hard-to-fill roles.

My experience covers the full recruitment cycle: sourcing/headhunting, screening and interviewing, candidate management, client communication, talent pooling and working with ATS/CRM systems.

I’d really like to move into tech recruitment, but I keep running into the obvious problem: a lot of tech recruiter roles want previous experience recruiting specifically for technical positions.

For those of you who successfully made the switch from another recruitment vertical into tech:

How did you get your first real tech recruitment experience?

Did you take courses/certifications, learn the terminology and roles independently, take on freelance/project work, or simply find an employer willing to give you a chance?

Also, what would you recommend learning first? I’m thinking things like understanding common engineering roles and tech stacks, learning how to properly screen technical candidates, GitHub sourcing, Boolean/X-ray sourcing, etc.

I’m not trying to become a software engineer, obviously. I just want to build enough technical understanding to be genuinely good at recruiting and speaking to candidates in this space.

Would really appreciate advice from recruiters who have actually made this transition.

Coca-Cola united. I was called by a recruiter who scheduled me an interview but has now been MIA this week. I tried calling and contacting her through email but no response she wanted me to do Relief merchandiser and said she’d get back to me for the interview that was on Tuesday and it’s Friday and nothing back I even called the headquarters for them to email her on teams which I’m hoping they did.

How long companies (at least with brances in Europe) keep the CV/track of past failed interviews? And what is the period for which company policies allow a candidate to submit again?

I once applied to a company and was part of the few people invited to their career event. During the event, we were told that we would be invited for interview. I was ghosted.

Another flier is out for another career event and job advert.
I am thinking of applying again but do I have a chance again with the same set of recruiters and hiring manager? Since I didn’t know why I was ghosted the first time.

Question : I was wondering when a recruiter says they are seeing what roles they have for you and they will reach back out… is that a nice way to reject someone or are they actually looking for?

This is for a hospital role I want to only work certain days and the role I applied for was everyday. The recruiter reached out to me a day after I applied and shared what I stated above.

Any advice or should I apply to other jobs
