I had a final round interview as a senior accountant at a company. I know they had 3-4 candidates in the final round also. I’m pretty sure I was the last one to interview out of them. The final interview was in the office with the 4 people of the team. Right after I emailed the internal recruiter of the company to ask around when a decision would be made. She responded quick and said they will reach out within a week after team makes a decision. Is that good or bad? Could it be either?

Yeah I don't think there's any tea leaves to be read in this situation.. sounds like they're just good at communication (rare but awesome). I'm sure they are considering multiple candidates and are responding in kind to each of you. Hope it works out!!

If a train leaves Chicago on a Monday, travelling 50 mp/h to New York. Another train leaves Washington on a Tuesday, travelling 35 mp/h to New York. A bicyclist missed the train and decided to travel via his bicycle from New Jersey to New York, travelling on average of 15 mp/h.

Does it mean I get the job I interviewed for?

All the stuff you said will not change if you get the job or not. Hope for the best, brace for the worst.

Yeah it’s just that in my past roles I often knew I got it in the final interview or within a day. But a lot of those roles I was the only person in the final round. Here they interviewed multiple people at final round and mine was Friday afternoon. The team probably haven’t even met yet, so I could get it but may have to wait a few days. I’d say I should hear by Monday/tuesday

I think the news is pretty neutral. Saying they'll reach out within a week seems pretty ordinary. Some places move quickly, some don't, and some, especially these days, seem to slow walk the process. Best approach is to keep positive thoughts as you wait to hear.

They didn’t ask about start date/salary but the recruiter covered that in the screening. Also I had a second interview over teams with controller who mentioned they are hiring wuick and asked if I had any offers and all. So they already knew all that in final interview

He said hiring quick but at same time said he doesn’t want it to be too quick and all

In my experience, I have been contacted soon thereafter when I got offered the position, unless they specifically said there would be a wait.

Right so I feel it’s too early to tell. My interview was yesterday only. They obviously won’t send anything during the weekend so I figure I’ll hear back by Monday/Tuesday latest
