Hi - I've had two interviews and have a provisional offer for a Senior Manager position in the UK. I've been told by my recruiter that I just need a short informal chat with a Partner before a contract can be agreed and sent. I've been waiting a month now to schedule this conversation - is this normal? Anyone else had to wait ages before a contract and a start date? Some kind of holding reply would be nice, such as 'we're trying to schedule this but it'll be in two weeks time.' Thoughts?

Hey mate sorry to break this to you, but if you’ve not had that ‘short informal chat’ with the Partner it’s not an offer yet. It’s just another interview and treat like another interview. You need to keep the pressure on the HR folks tot that to happen. Don’t let too much time to pass as it’ll just get forgotten.

I’m curious - whatever happened to this? Did you reach out, and did you get anything back besides a “Sorry we opted to go in a different direction” type email?

Hi Fishes, Have a query. My spouse is working in the electrical and electronics field for the last 15years, in various GCC countries. Now he wishes to come back to India and wants to join some company here. But seems like similar opportunities are very less, say close to 3-4%. What is your opinion if he takes a DevOps course and do a career change ? What will be the % of getting interviews ? Even if he gets selected, how much will he get?
Please reply.
