I got a dream job offer as a consultant for a b4 the same day as my interviews with 4 people on the team last Friday. the last partner who interviewed told me that they wanted me on the team and to go into the weekend knowing that (which I was of course super happy about) he said they would get back to me early next week with details but it’s now Thursday afternoon and I haven’t heard anything. should I be worried or is this normal for a big firm?

No nothing to worry about. These corps are really slow. But offer could fall through because everyone’s input needs to be considered

Was told the name of the manager I’ll be interviewing with next and sent over my availability for next week. Still haven’t received a date for the video interview yet haha. At least you finished the process and were basically told you were getting the job so that’s a plus

follow up with ur recruiter!
