Try getting your referrers to ping the recruiter? It took a while for me to hear back as well

No, still actively hiring a lot of people. The silence could mean your app isn’t being moved forward (I’ve had this happen with people I’ve referred), or that recruiting is just super backed up.

Absolutely not for Bain at least, and I assume McKinsey and BCG are the same. Seems like we’re basically trying to hired qualified people as quickly as possible from every source.

I know BCG and McK got back to me pretty quick, but Bain flat out did not reply over year. (I think my March 2021 app is still active, lol).

Still hiring though

Would reach out to either a recruiter or your referral :)

I’ve heard that HR is pretty backed up atm, so it varies from recruiter to recruiter. I moved through the funnel in 1-2 wks while others I know moved through at snails pace.

Has anyone else had this experience? How are non-reelect teachers viewed in the profession and by future employers? It seems so cruel when a 2nd year teacher is told they will not be re elected to continue the next school year and not given any explanation. This is supported by ed code, sad. Especially, when this teacher only ever received positive work performance feedback, whose students made progress, and they built great relationships with students,, co-workers, parents.
