6 interviews? Super excessive. You can always reach out to the hiring manager directly if you’re that keen. What’s your YOE?

Two weeks is definitely a while after completing all interviews. If you have already followed up with the recruiter, perhaps it’s a good idea to follow up with the hiring manager. Although, I personally wouldn’t. To me, unless the recruiter is sick in hospital, this behavior shows a serious cultural problem at the company.

smart

Did you send any thank you notes? Reach out to one of the interviewers

Yup! Sent follow ups and nada

If it’s my biotech, I’ll reach out to the recruiter if you want

Nothing you should do. If they reach out and proceed further, then great. Otherwise, this firm is not worth working for and you avoided a potential landmine.

Update: the recruiter emailed me this morning asking me my availability to set up a calL. I immediately let him know and he never called or responded...

Haha, well at least they got back. Give em a day or two considering how long it took them to get back this time around

Hi everyone,

I’ve been working as a contract TAS for 6 months in a medical device company. I started part time and as it became busier/my trainer quit, I became full-time. I applied for the TA position through corporate and would like some insight. the company is short staffed and my site specifically does not have good TA retention. For the salary expectation, I put in 85k which is in the range. I’m currently at 64k which is below the minimum of the range. Is this realistic?
