he y bain 1: how long do decisions come out? I had mine this morning and I haven’t heard back but people have had theirs given out within 2 hours. Is it fair to assume that if I don’t get the call today, the answer is no?

Hi fishes, I declined the offer from Pwc AC bangalore on July 28th by sending an email to HR, communicated the same to us_pwc_ac_bangalore_recruitment_services@pwc.com.

Any thoughts on asking a hiring manager to speak to one of his/her employees without the manager being present to get a good feel for the culture?

I am product designer with a fair amount of experience (6yrs).

Recently was interviewed for a Sr. role in Booking but unfortunately, the team finds me better suited as a core individual contributor.

I am also in the advanced stages of some lead designer positions in other companies.

However I am really interested in joining the team at Booking, especially because of the design culture.

What should be my reasons to accept or not accept the offer from booking?

Hello Bainees,

The first round of interview was done. It's been over a month but no updates yet. Recruier ain't responding.
I understand the bandwidth of my recruiter but 1 month is good enough to come up with a decision.

Any thoughts on what should be done?

How do I turn my recent popularity with recruiters into an actual offer?I have been involved with security since my phone phreak days.

Had my 2nd interview with the hiring manager this past Friday & sent a thank you shortly after. It's now Tuesday (for those who see this on another day). At the end of the interview he said they've had other people who were interested but only one other person besides me were they considering. Said he would talk to his team and possibly have me fly out to meet in person. How long should I wait to follow up without seeming pushy? Also welcome any other tips to separate me from other candidate.

I worked for three years after that when I left the company in 31st dec 2019, pandemic started and during that time I fond my interest in to stock market now looking for job in the same domain as equity research analyst for which i am pursuing a certification course in financial modeling and valuation.

I have 3 years of career gap because of some personal reasons how can I justify that in interview from Jan 01, 2020 to present?!

I had two rounds of discussion (more than a month ago) and the recruiter informed me that they’ll be scheduling the HR discussion and then be rolling out the offer.

It has been two weeks now and I haven’t heard from the recruiter nor has my HR discussion been scheduled.

The recruiter does not answer my calls or reply to e-mails.

Has anyone else faced this while interviewing with KGS (Customer Advisory)?

Got an assignment to be completed as initial screening step. Spent a weekend and provided the best possible solution. Recruiter and hiring manager did not even respond back with any feedback. Height of arrogance.
