How long should you wait before reaching out if you dont hear back from an interview? I was interviewing for a Junior front office role. Did round 1 with a director. And then round two and three with two different MDs. I felt like they all went very well. But my last one was over 2 weeks ago. I would assume they would let me know regardless considering I went to 3rd round interviews. Should I bother reaching out and asking? Or just wait it out?

Rule of thumb is usually to leave them be until it hits the two week mark, at which point its fair game to follow up with the recruiter or hiring manager to get a status update. A follow up shows interest in the role and implies you might have other processes going and if they want you they need to either act or move on

I always follow up if I don't hear back in two weeks or more. I don't think there is anything wrong with following up and I think it shows initiative as well. I would say go for it.

Wait it out. If you did a 3rd round, they'll definitely reach out once they've made a decisions

Hmm rule of thumb is to follow up with your recruiter within 2 days after the 2nd round. You should def check with your recruiter.

I’ve benefitted from being very persistent. If you don’t hear back after a week, reach back and ask why and what else they need from you.

Are there any jobs related to Finance BPO/Generals accounting/ Record to report process in Indore ( M.P) or are there any companies related to this field who are providing permanent work from home??

So my VP at my previous company felt bad and refused to speak to me or attend my farewell after my resignation. His reason was that I somehow betrayed his trust as he had promoted me just last year (after keeping the position open for 4 months and letting me take additional work load after the previous SM left!). Does this make any sense? I mean where does this sense of entitlement or ownership over the employees come from? No wonder the company in question is kind of facing a literal exodus!
