Hi! Wondering if anyone know how likely it is for Consulting companies to give interviews and offers during this time before the New Year?

I was laid off about 4 weeks ago and have just been anxious about not hearing back after submitting about 60 apps over the past few weeks. All my apps are under consideration, but just wanted to see if anyone can give some insights? Thank you 🙏🏼

To be honest, the probability of receiving an offer this time around is very low. Lots of folks are taking time off for holidays, wrapping up projects, etc. You’ll likely start hearing back late Jan/early Feb. don’t forget to apply for unemployment

Does anyone think it’s weird that my firm is bending over backwards to try to keep a first year staff from leaving the firm after she was rated a 2 this year. But now she’s trying to leave and they keep trying to push her to stay saying she can be a partner in 8-9 years and laying it all out in detail. The issue is they laid off other staff (all but her) so maybe that’s it? Find it very odd.
