Hiring manager said they were going to get back to me by the “end of this week”. Haven’t heard anything. Can I follow up Monday or is that too aggressive?

Would follow up on Tuesday - probably just ran out of time on Friday

You need to be aggressive. Recruiters are busy right now and some are terrible. Looks good to be proactive and let them know you're intetested in the job.

Do not do a follow up on Monday... follow up on Tuesday

I don’t understand the advice NOT to contact the recruiter on Monday. Isn’t persistence rewarded?

Monday is the day to catch up on emails/updates/etc... that happened late Friday and over the weekend.

I would give another week and check with the recuiter. They will come back to you if they want you.

Follow up mid day on Monday. Have to be aggressive!

Follow up at 4pm on monday.

Ok thanks. It’s frustrating that hiring managers and recruiters within Booz Allen are so unresponsive and unreliable. I just need a damn project!

Don't mess with people on catch-up day. Everyone knows that's Monday (or does know now [...and knowing is half the battle. G. I. Joe!])

Back on topic now...promptly send an email to the hiring manager Tuesday morning at 9 a.m., seeing whether they may have some availability later in the week (specifically mid- to late afternoon Thursday or Friday before lunch, but obviously be flexible) to meet for a few minutes.

Most importantly: remember that the hiring manager is working. Think about it from their perspective so that you can tailor your approach accordingly. Regardless of who gets the job, they don't give a hoot about any one individual who is looking to demonstrate their eagerness for the job. Differentiate Yourself by being more than simply "assertive", and look to understand the HM's pain points, and find a reasonable and simplistic solution to helping alleviate those pain points. This is no sure-fire way to assuredly get the job, but it's definitely going to go a hell of a lot further than simply being annoying.

Oh my — this is why Consulting exists. ..follow up on Monday. If they’re too much of a puss that they find Monday inappropriate, he/she is doing you a favor by unresponsiveness. Agree with you about Booz recruiters-they are not responsive and given this it’s unclear if they do much

I have another with the head of the division next week again at 6am (pre determined before this interview). It was also hard because the division’s core work is private enough that there was not much prep I could do beforehand. Tips?

Hello,

Currently, in accenture. I have had very bad billable hours and not much achievement this fiscal year. I am worried of getting fired, so i applied for another job. Got offered may be 5% above my current pay with 5k bonus, but in lower level at Deloitte. I think working lower level will give me more opportunities to learn as i think i have lot to learn. I made decision based on my gut and accepted the offer. I have not talked to anyone on accenture side yet. What you think?
