If you’re an in-house talent person and you’re off for a week..am I right to think that you wouldn’t handover your applicants to a team-mate to cover that period?

I just did a third interview early in the week with hiring manager’s boss and haven’t heard anything back. They’ve been quick to contact so far. Really want this job, and I’m stressing 😅

Probably depends on where you are in the process and how much they want you (as in, how urgently they need to fill that role). Fairly far along, I've been handed to another in-house person to help manage the process so things move quickly. But mid-early stages, I feel like if it can wait, it'll just wait.

Cheers mate. Yeah, the wait is maddening.
Best of luck to you too!

It could be the direction they’ve received from the actual hiring manager to wait until they’re back “in the office” (either buying time to make a decision, or talk through with the Finance team and such).

Be cool... you got this! Good luck!!!

Cheers mate, appreciate it 🤞

No they wouldn’t hand it over. Offers are taking a lot of time to clear. It can be weeks. Finance can twiddle their thumbs and look at accounts & numbers for a looooong time. Breathe. Be patient. Good things are coming.

Thanks for the insight. Second-guessing everything is tiring work...
Hopefully tmw will bring good news 🤞
