Had a super random interview yesterday. Got emailed in the morning and we were on a call shortly after. It seemed really promising. How long should I expect to hear back if at all? I’m desperate here. It was a sign of hope, lol.

Use the positive energy to keep looking for jobs to distract you from hearing back from them. People on the other side have a job that has a ton of other tasks not related to you, while you can go crazy waiting on them. They are slow. Send a thank you, check in every once in awhile, but get yourself thinking about something else.

So true, and very helpful! Thank you!

Also use it as validation that you are worth a call. That is 100% confirmed and is awesome. That means other people out there will also think you’re worth a call, keep pressing.
