From everyone's experience, how long does it usually take to hear back about an interview? How long should you wait before reaching back out?

Everything from 1 day to 2 months. I only speak from personal experience.

I usually send thank you emails after the interview. Some companies discourage their employees from replying though so don’t be shocked if you didn’t hear back. Follow up one week from the interview date. Good luck OP!

Are you waiting to hear back about next steps? Or an offer?

For next steps it’s usually the same day or 1-2 days. Usually they reach out with more interview invites with higher ups or other people on the team.

For an offer it’s usually anywhere from the same day to a week.

It’s always been quick for me. Although things do happen. For example, feedback takes a while if people are out or busy. I wouldn’t worry too much. If you haven’t heard back in two weeks I’d check in and move on. I’m always searching, applying, and interviewing for other positions even if I’ve gone through the interview process. I like having my options open.

Will do, thanks again!

As a side note, I hope that everyone gets to have that interview they're waiting for soon. 🙏💕

An offer is usually a few days to a week.

Most last one was a month. The process was dragging on off after the final interview [they’d respond to emails but vaguely] then one day they responded with “we have an offer for you!”

like

For the final round, if I got the offer it's usually within 2-5 days, some cases even the next day. If I didn't, it's can be around a week or longer, especially if I have to chase them down for it with no encouraging words from the recruiter then I usually know I didn't get it

Hello Guys,

I joined
Cognizant recently, the project interview calls which I am getting is not from my base location.
I have the location constraint, should I wait for the right opportunity or raise this concern to ADP team so they can look in to it?

As per ADP policy, one should not have any constraints and take the project as FCFS basis.

I have 5 YOE in Analytics... always thought I wanted to be a DS, but every job (even the junior ones) required experience in ML development.

I know the thought process and stuff but 'I' wasn't the one who did that part in the project. How to convince them that I could do the job without taking credit of others.

Hello! I’m a Talent Acquisition Manager at a 300 FTE sized gov contractor with 2 recruiters under me. One of my recruiters and I are both having babies in August and will be out for 12 weeks. She’s only coming back part time. My leadership already said no to hiring another full time recruiter. Has anyone had any good experience with contract recruiters? Or any advice for a short term solution?
