If you don’t hear back from an internal recruiter for over a week past an interview, are you ghosted?

Probably but not definitely. I actually had a long discussion about this with the lead recruiter at my agency and she basically said that if you don’t hear back after a couple of weeks it probably means they aren’t interested but that sometimes they just don’t have any update to give you.

You should reach out and follow up via email. Sometimes cds are on shoots or people are on vacation who are needed to make decisions.

Or if they aren’t interested it could give closure or at the very least constructive criticism.

Always ask if you want an answer

Interviewed for Deloitte S&A Tech Strategy SC and got a verbal offer for Consultant instead. I negotiated the offer to 120K salary and 10K signing bonus. I’m a boomerang with 4 years ERP consulting but this past year I’ve been doing DEI Consulting. Spoke with former colleagues who rejoined Deloitte and got a much higher offer for SC. How do I go back to the recruiter to negotiate further? I suggested that I’d probably sign but need time to think. Now I’d like to go back and request 140k salary.

Had an interview today, for RN OnCall position. This is an extremely difficult position, but I bring not only a preference to work the hours they need but the experience and credentials to qualify for the upper range of the salary (RN, MSN, CHPN, 5 years hospice experience). I asked for the range and he gave the range then immediately stated that I would qualify for mid range. My goal is to find a similar position to the one I’m working now and add 20-30% to my income, the high range would meet
