I once received an offer 6 months after my interviews. At the time of my interview they decided to move things around internally instead of hiring. Then when some things changed they remembered that they had liked me and called me back with an offer. This was a few years before Covid. So there is hope!

Yup .. I think it was 1.5 months but it was just a long and slow interview process due to people’s schedules

I got one 3 months after...followed up every week for two weeks, no news. Got a job offer somewhere else, told them, got an offer at the first shop two hours later.

Yep! It’s the one I wanted in the first place. In my case, I was referred to the original agency and met with the head of production as opposed to responding directly to a job posting, but the process can sometimes take a very long time

Yes. 3 months.

Yep. Interviewed before Thanksgiving last year, got hired last week of February.

Yes, hiring was on hold by holding company due to covid

2-3+ months has been standard in my experience (pre COVID). I had to interview with multiple people who were traveling all the time, job descriptions get rewritten and need re approval, so it was a really drawn out process even though I sensed I already had the job in the bag.

5 for me. Just last month. Couldn’t take it.

Yes. 2ish months after and a few friendly follow ups. I got another job offer and flagged to them that I was still interested and got the call the next day.

like

Yes, same here. 4 rounds of interviews with positive feedback, then radio silence for 3-4 months. Got the offer almost 5 months after the last interview.

Serious question: why work in advertising if you’re not a creative? I know plenty of smart account people, strategists, data analysts etc. who would almost certainly make more money and enjoy more autonomy in a different field, or at least in-house. What’s the allure if you don’t represent the product?
