A hiring manager offered me the job after my final interview last Thursday, but I'm still waiting for the actual offer letter. They said it's coming soon, but didn't give a timeline. Is 5 business days too early to check in?

Nah that sounds about right to me. Just send a quick follow up. They're not going to think any less of you for it. I wouldn't panic. Probably just waiting on a background check or approvals or something mundane like that.

Definitely not too early. An offer isn’t real until it’s in writing, so it’s reasonable to want clarity.

Absolutely 💯

Five business days is not too early to check in. A brief, professional nudge asking about timelines is normal and shows interest, not desperation.

Atleast I hope so
