I have been looking for a job for the past 11 months & I'm in the UK. And, I have experience in account management in advertising agencies (digital marketing) & events for the past 10 years but in India. I am studying for PMP certification as of now & still applying for jobs. I'm questioning my resume as well. I have rewritten it a lot of times & have customised it according to the role as well. Anyone has suggestions or any references, on how to land a job in this country?

Hello everyone,

I wanted to know how long does Course5i take to release an offer, I cleared all rounds last friday and was going to get an offer from HR early this week (by Monday evening or Tuesday) but didn’t get any offer till now.

I loved the role and I am still excited to join the organisation so mailed a follow up to the HR yesterday but did not get any response till now. I do not want to follow up for the next 1-2 days since I feel it would be too pushy from my end.

I applied to a job at KPMG and did the first two rounds of interviews, general interview, then case study and competency. Never before have I had such a positive feedback at the end of an interview of the 2nd, both said really like me, I did well etc.
It's now been 3 weeks since the interview and I still haven't heard back from the team other than the odd HR email saying they are following up with them. Is there something going on internally, I.e hiring freeze in the London office atm?
