3 weeks after my interview for a management role and no movement. I followed up and per HR this week, I’m still in the running, but why on earth do these things take so long?

The entire process of getting a job has become too complicated. It's like no one wants to make a decision, so the process gets spread out over multiple interviews, and any number of people have to be involved and sign off. What's overlooked in the whole saga are the people who are waiting to find out what's happening.

It seems like that is just the job market right now OP. I think because it is an employers market they know they can take as long as they want to hire someone because people are so desperate to find new roles. As long as they said you are still in the running then that is a good thing.

2 weeks after this post - still radio silence. Sent another follow up a week ago, nothing. Texted my former boss that was recruiting me for this, crickets. I’m giving up.

Misled on Maternity Leave Policy. I found out I only get 4 weeks pay for maternity leave (STD +“sick days”). I will take 12 weeks but wont get paid for 8 weeks. I work for a US, west coast based company in the tech/VC industry. Their website claims to offer “paid parental leave and other progressive benefits for parents”. I didn’t find out until after I was hired their pay was only 8 weeks but since I have been at the company less than 12 months, I don’t qualify for their policy. Is this unfair?

Anyone else just sitting around waiting for the ax to drop? I'm a soon to be 2nd year corporate associate who has seen work completely dry up. My utilization held pretty steady around 50% immediately after shutdown, but August was below 15 billables with no appreciable work in the pipeline. Aside from letting people know I'm available and doing pro-bono/CLE, it's starting to feel like a serious "covidcation" leading to termination.
