Hi, I recently gave 2 rounds of interviews at a Big 4 in Toronto, one was technical and second the behavioral, the interviews went very well, with the second interview ending on a note that the next round would be a partner round. It's been a week today since my last interview and I have dropped a followup 1 day ago, what should be my next step?

Typically the HR person is waiting on busy SMs/Directors and Partners to tell HR what to do next and when to schedule things. If you haven’t heard back it’s just possible that they are keeping HR waiting.

Yes, feeling better after all the advice here. Thank you! Will be patient!

Give it a bit more time if you just followed up 1 day ago. If you haven’t heard anything by Friday morning, a polite email to HC just checking in on the status of the 3rd interview would be my suggestion. If this is for PwC then DM me.

That's so kind of you, but sadly it's not. I guess I have to be more patient, my hiring is being managed by a HR manager, seems logical why it takes time.

Also the HR has not responded to my follow-up, should I reach out to people whom I interviewed with?

funny

Thank you for your response, can you please suggest what my ideal step should be?

Is it for New grads for Deloitte? If it is, I think most consulting teams haven’t sent out offers. There’s a few posts and threads on Reddit on offer updates for new grads and so far, only people have gotten offers for Audit. Just my speculation

Nope, not a normal recruitment. So alone in the race, I guess.

Total sidebar: is reditt active for consulting in toronto, similar to fb? Which threads?

It shouldn’t take that long after the 2nd round for your recruiter to get back to you. That feedback should be pretty immediate. The scheduling for the partner interview might take a bit of time to coordinate, but not the feedback that you were put through for the final round by the recruiter. They’d be in contact with you immediately to make sure they don’t lose you. It’s possible they just ghosted you.

They’re probably waiting for other interviews to take place.

I guess so, thanks for the input.
