Curious to know, usually how many people are candidates competing against when you make it to the final interview stage at an agency, specifically for something like an AD position

2 or 3. Or none of it's obvious you're the one, but we don't shelf anyone who is a contender until you sign the offer.

agree with recruiter. I typically bring in the final 2. At most the final 3. I’ve had searches where one candidate stood above at the phone interview stage and you only bring in one. you do this long enough, you know where the bar is.

Hi Fishes,

I gave my various rounds of interview in Deloitte USI 2 months ago, and since then till last Friday it was showing " interview in progress" on their job portal, HR said earlier that we are interviewing other candidates. I got an offer from Amazon last week and asked Deloitte recruiter to speed up the process, i didn't get any reply on my email but now it's showing " review in progress" on the job portal. What does it mean? Shall I wait for Deloitte offer or take Amazon's offer.

Should I reach out to the recruiter, too? Or is that overkill after two recos? I don't want to be bothersome. But I do want to show interest..

This all happened on Friday, if that matters. Thanks!

Is it better to use the “apply through LinkedIn” function on company recruiting websites, or to upload your own resume? I sort of like how much info my LinkedIn offers, but my resume is nice and neatly designed and more concise. Thoughts?
