Had a final interview last Friday. They said they’d be in touch early this week. Haven’t heard anything from the recruiter, except that they passed on my thank you note to the interviewers yesterday. Should I reach out tomorrow if I haven’t heard anything? I know it’s a slow week due to the holidays, so should I wait until next week?

I would wait. One or two days before a major holiday is not the time to follow up. It may come across as immature. If you want to remain top of mind, I would drop a holiday note ending with something like “I look forward to working with you all” or “being part of this awesome team in the new year” and leave it at that.
All the best, I’m sure good news is incoming.

Getting to the point where some days I completely shut down. Cry in the bathroom at work. Can’t do anything. Next day I can manage it all pretty well. Im under a tremendous amount of pressure (working 2+ roles) with no leadership and minimal help. I’m really good at hiding/covering up my emotions so I’m sure no one knows. I just can’t imagine going through this cycle much longer. Not emotionally stable enough to even think about interviewing.

Hi Fishes, I cleared technical and MCQ round at Accenture. And got a mail stating i have been selected for HR round. Later the same day a hr called and asked me to upload all documents and asked my expected CTC and stuff. Earlier in portal it was showing interviewing , now it shows review or pending and has a message ' we regret to inform that you experience does not align with req, we will contact if anything comes up' , what does this mean. How can they put something like this?

Hey guys, so I just finished my final interview on Monday (today's Friday) for a company in Norway and was told to wait until next week as they're interviewing this week. It's been a few days and has been replaying the entire interview on my mind wondering if it was alright. What do you do while waiting? I need to take off my mind from worrying - obviously I want this job so badly!

First - thank you so much to this amazing group for all the encouragement and advice! I now potentially have 2 offers (both verbal) at this time. Both amazing companies. I have 2 questions:
1. I have a month's vacation planned for end of this year. I didn't mention it during the interview process (it was not intentional). Should I mention this to the recruiter when they come to me with the initial offer?
2. Some tips for salary negotiations please?

The team I am on is small and I know that when I leave, they’ll have a lot on their hands. I only have a couple of interviews scheduled and nothing is solid yet.
