Booz Allen Hamilton 🐠:

My sister interviewed for a position there last Wednesday and it's been radio silence since then. Workday still shows her app is in the interview stage.

Good sign? Bad sign? Undetermined?

TIA!

Our recruiting process is entirely decentralized, so it could basically mean anything, unfortunately. It’s very annoying and has been so for the 11 years I’ve worked here.

Just give it a little more time. Interview results and calls are taking longer than the usual. My neighbor's son was called after 3 weeks since his interview. He was about to accept the offer from a startup company. Perfect, they called him just in time.

Hello there! I currently work in billing at a medical office. I got my Bachelors in Psychology a few years ago but I couldn’t find a position that seemed like a good option for me that was well paying and fulfilling. I tried working as a tech at an Applied Behavior Analysis clinic but it wasn’t a good fit. I’m hesitant to try case management or social work because I worry I won’t like it but I want to use my degree in Psychology. Does anyone have any ideas for me?
