How long is okay to make a company wait on a job offer? Got a good offer from place a but am still interviewing for something I really want, though not feeling 100% certain I’ll get an offer from place b.

Agencies usually give you 3 days. Any longer and they know you’re holding out on something better. Which at that point they’re likely to withdraw the offer.

Thanks for this—going through something similar!

I would notify place b that you have another offer and see if they’ll give you an answer

Hello,
I have applied for the position of a consultant at Accenture and am currently ongoing the interview process.
I have successfully cleared the Skill 1 and Skill 2 interview rounds and was now expecting that the next would be the HR round.
I have been mailed that there is there is a third round before the HR round that is going to conducted the next week.
Skill 1: Pure Technical
Skill 2: Semi Technical + Managerial

What you I be expecting in this third round?

Got the invite for final rounds for SFA. Please help!

1) How do I ACE this? Rinse and repeat on PS1/PS2 prep or do more?
2) What can I expect - It’s on Chime and not in person.
3) They’re asking for salary expectations & I found out via research that the recruiter quoted median TC but I’d like top TC (200). Do I need to explain why my expectations changed?
4) Is there value in attending the Pre Recruiter Call/ Candid Calls?
5) How do they expect ppl to take a full day off for “maybe”?

TIA!
