Applied for a role at Goldman and heard back quickly about my first interview. The recruiting team told me that they were interested in another interview. After, I shared my availability and they said there is no update, but they will let me know when there is. It's been a month since. My application hasn't had a status change from "interview completed". What does this mean?

Unfortunately it is very normal to get ghosted and led on at all the big investment banks. It happened to me for Goldman, MS, and JPM. It took 6 months from my first interview for one of them to finally offer me a role

Very normal. Did 6 rounds and met with 18 different people at GS. After the second round I was told they were not going to move forward. Then a month later I got a call from HR and said they wanted me to come in for a 3rd round. Landed the gig so don’t despair, big banks are notoriously slow and sometimes a bit disjointed.

I followed up once, but don't know what the protocol is for more than once.

Application status changes to "interview completed" even prior to the interview (my experience), so it not relevant. Just follow up, and search for another role. The best case scenario, you have it. The worst you will not have the interview. I didn't have a great experience with GS - one of my interviewers was late by 15 minutes, given the 30 minutes slot. One of the reasons can be that the role was put on hold. In my case, I have interviewed for VP role, which was downgraded to Associate role afterwards.

It means you should live your professional life in a way that you always have at least one standing offer, and interviews should be an exercise you do routinely, as in once or twice a month.

It means you were a protocol interview. They already had a candidate in mind and you were just there to make the process look fair. Are you an older worker and or PoC? There you go…

Hey All,
I finished a third round interview, and HR contacted me that afternoon saying I had positive feedback across the board and they would contact me the next day regarding next steps. It’s been two days and they finally get back to me saying they haven’t been able to sync with the hiring manager but will keep me posted. Honestly I wish they would talk with the hiring manager and then let me know the decision instead of checking in. It’s messing with my emotions.

I’ve interviewed for several positions AVP and VP roles since October of ‘21 internally with Citi. Didn’t take any of them because it would have been only $8k - $11k salary bumps. For double or even triple the work. So I’m leaving to go from $70k to $235k in September at a competing firm for a VP level role. The moral of the story: hop if you need to. No reason to stick around for low pay and not being compensated fairly by the company that expects “loyalty” from you.
