Im looking to start a doctoral program come January out there.

Lower Greenville is a good mix of homes but still being able to walk to restaurants. State Thomas area is more of a Townhouse vibe. Knox/Henderson and Uptown have lots of apartment complexes (so lots of ppl around) with places to walk to as well, but these areas will probably skew younger.

I believe they’re interviewing other candidates. Does that make me second or third choice? And does the fact that I’m working with a recruiter hurt my chances of being selected due to the commission? Should I hold out for the offer or is 1+ week a sign that I won’t be selected?
