Did 4 rounds of interviews, didn’t get any updates from them the following week, so sent out a follow-up on Friday, nothing yet. I know ghosting is pretty standard today but didn’t really expect from that company/team. I don’t hold my breath but curious if anyone ever got an offer after 1.5 week of no updates? (I guess, it’s more of a rhetorical question, lol)

Yes!! I had an amazing interview and was positive I got the job - then radio silence for 1.5 weeks! Even after I had followed up about next steps. I was so confused but sure I was getting ghosted, so I sent a last ditch “am I still being considered” email and ended up getting the gig!
