Do you guys ever follow up with potential employers after an interview when they don’t get back to you? If so, what’s the appropriate time to wait? One week? Two weeks? What do you say?

Yes - two weeks certainly, sooner if that feels appropriate (eg small entity with few decision-makers).

Deloitte
Hi everyone, I just had a first round interview for Deloitte M&A Valuation Analyst role based in Australia. I feel like I went pretty well, they were pretty keen at my Analytics background ( DA/Modelling) & my interest in finance (preparing CFA L1 atm)
However I haven’t heard back anything after two days(e.g. book my time for round 2 interview)…I know there is supposed to two more round of interviews.
Just wondering if this is the normal waiting time or I’m not the person they looking?

I've got a consultant role (rank 42) in GDS DnA team. Any reviews? I've heard they have some client interview post joining, is it true? Also, when would I get the laptop - before joining or on the day of joining? And do they offer any sort of welcome kit or any reimbursements for any tech purchases?

Appreciate the help.

Feeling so down right now…I spent months trying to get into a tech company. And when I finally got in, I was then laid off two months into the job. This past month, I applied to 300+ jobs and had 30+ interviews. None of them led to offers due to hiring freezes or internal hires. I just went through 10 interviews with a non-tech company and I don’t know if I will get an offer. I am just so tired of everything. If anyone knows of any PM roles (hardware/software), please let me know. YOE: 2
