I interviewed a month ago with an IB for a role I’m very much interested in. The hiring manager reached out to me 2 weeks after my last interview and told me they need more time. I haven’t followed up since and it’s been 3 weeks after that email. Should I check in with them any time soon or let it go?

Why wouldn’t you follow up - you only gain from showing you’re still interested? I would have done it after 1 week

Makes sense - in any case I would say follow up after 3 weeks is totally fine, especially if you frame it as “I’m still super interested, looking forward to further news”

If An IB isn’t getting back to you quickly you are very low interest, generally speaking. IBs are bleeding bankers as bad as consulting firms are losing folks. Have many friends who got jobs at different banks from no name boutiques to BBs, and their processes were all quick right now.

I’m an SE who works 2 AE’s, and from looking at the market am on the bottom end of the pay scale. The company I work for has many different products/services (80+), so they wanted SEs to take on a local “SME” role in a specific area, to support other members of the team.

This role has ramped up quite a bit recently, and people have been coming to me for help with their deals (overviews, demos, POCs) which is increasing my workload.

How would you approach asking for more money here? Thanks!
