I interviewed for a final round last Tuesday and the recruiter hasn’t responded to me at all (I reached out last Wed and again this week). Is that somewhat common practice for recruiters not to give an update?

I am experiencing the same... completed the final round a few weeks back and still no decision. Recruiter emailed 2 weeks back that we will have the decision soon, but no feedback after that. So I would say this is very very common. Just keep the faith... and keep looking until u have started on ur next role. Hope that helps.

I’d say this is quite normal. It’s rare for them to speak to you unless they actually know something new that they can make money from - unfortunately most recruiters are like this, although I’ve had a few refreshing exceptions who I’m still in touch with.

Don’t read into it until you know for sure. It might be the organisation is trying to get headcount confirmation during COVID. Best of luck!

Similar experience here. If I’m still ghosted by the recruiter after 2 follow-ups, my plan is to send a note to the hiring manager asking for feedback on the process since I never heard back from the recruiter. YOLO

Anyone here familiar with the hiring process of KPMG consulting in Van? Had a partner interview on Nov 21, thought the feedback was positive but haven't heard back yet (no rejection/offer). Is it something normal or the interview just didn't go as well as I thought?

It's an experienced hire for an SC role. I saw the posting is still open atm, and my guess is that the recruiting team is comparing candidates since competition is higher due to recent layoffs.

Thanks in advance!

None of this showed up in my research of the company or my interviews.
