I’m in industry now and if the right candidate came along, I would be happy to wait a week or two understanding they are in a tough apot

I felt the same way when I began applying at the beginning of January and just told every company that I interviewed with that I could not start before March to make sure I didn’t leave my team during busy season. None of them had a problem with it and actually found it really respectful. I received an offer that I accepted last week.

Get outta there

I didn’t apply because the position was supposed to start Feb 15. Unfortunate, but couldn’t leave my team hanging and burn bridges like that.

The industry company can wait a week or two if they really want you

Did you actually apply and get the offer? People usually apply many jobs to get one. Job market is not good right now. Also, hiring cycle takes a while if the job is legit. I would say around 1.5 to 2 months. So you are okay. Just apply and see if you can get the offer.

Are you in audit? Applying takes time and effort and if you do not want to start right away, I would rather start applying when I am ready. I love sleeping and don’t want to use my free time for interview.

Hello Fishes,
Just need your help
I gave two rounds of interview on 7th and 8th April and there's no update from hiring manager till date.
I asked for an update once, shall I ask again?
What shall I ask?
I'm just so confuse, earlier use to receive update in a day or so but this is the longest wait.
