For those who interviewed right before the stay at home orders and the general lock down: how has this affected you? Have you been updated if there are delays or freezes?

Process has continued via zoom and “checking in”....

Finished my last interview before the lock down. Received an offer, but I didn't wanna negotiate higher salary, because of the situation and they were hiring 2 other analysts. Signed the offer and got a start date.

Process continued for me during the lock down. Got the job and they even allowed me to work remotely because I have to move to a new city. I guess it really depends on the company as my friend was in the same situation and they stopped the process at the company where she was applying

Did first three rounds in person pre-lockdown, then process continued via video calls for another four rounds. Offer verbally made but delayed paperwork 1 month due to unknown covid situation. Then offer formally arrived and negotiated offer up substantially and paperwork signed today! Must be present in the office to start, though.

Started the process before lockdown went into effect and finished the process virtually. Accepted offer and had my onboarding materials, work laptop, etc. all mailed to me. A rather strange situation, but the long hours and constant calls with different deal teams I’m on since starting a month ago have almost made it feel like I’ve almost been fully integrated with the team already.
