18 months during Covid. I applied and interviewed in February 2020 and then they put the position on hold. 1.5 years later they asked if I wanted to do a second round interview. This was a government (state DOJ) position.
They told me the next round was with the state AG so I’m guessing anyone who was still interested 18 months later was a shoe in. I had been promoted (at my still current job) in the meantime and was no longer interested.
Went through interviews from May - July, received an offer this week (because I received another offer from a competing firm).
I’ve applied to multiple places and haven’t even got the generic email stating the whether the position has been filled.
I hate that, in this day and age just give me something.
Not got the job: Waited six weeks before being told they have decided not to fill the position.
Got the job: Went back and forth for a month over salary concerns. Got more than they originally offered, a little less than I wanted.
1 week
Going on 2.5 months now with a HF (Treasury position).
The longest I’ve had to wait was one year!
Yes, I did, and it was worth the wait. I stayed with the company for 14 years :)
