Interviewed at a big tech company recently and I’m awaiting the decision from the team this week. For context, the recruiter reached out after my loop interviews a week and a half ago to tell me that all the interviewers were raving about our conversations and that they are “very”supportive of my hire…proceeded to say she would be reaching out to me after they reconvened in early march.

Trying not to get too excited as anything can happen. Any thoughts on this one?

Keep applying while you wait for their decision. Never get your hopes up and put all your eggs into one basket and never jump to conclusions, even when given overwhelmingly positive feedback. Simple as that.

Nothing is set in stone until you receive an offer that you have signed and submitted.

I second that. Had the rug pulled out from under me a few times like this. Always good to have a few alternates.

Until you start the position, you don't have it.

That sounds pretty promising. Sending positive vibes your way. If for some reason it falls through, don't get discouraged. Sounds like you bring a lot to the table.

Good luck and negotiate well!

Good luck. Hope it works out but from my experience every recruiter says that.

I received verbal confirmation from HR regarding my application after a few rounds of interviews, with an assurance that an offer letter would be issued two weeks later upon the return of the HoD from holiday.

However, after four weeks, I was informed of the rejection..

Nothing is final until the offer is in hand. I'd keep applying and putting irons in the fire.

I myself just went through 5 weeks of interviews with a company (all the way to the CEO) and an additional week of "waiting" only to get the "Thanks but we picked somone else".

So at the very least, take the experience you've had so far but keep looking so you don't lose any traction.

My initial thought is are they hiring for a BDM, Digital Marketer or Relationship Manager? Good luck!

Keep applying pressure on and continue to look for job positions you are qualified for and excited about.

Agree with other posters, you don’t have the job until you receive your company managed PC and complete onboarding, and finish your first day on job.

I agree with the rest of the folks here. I heard stories of people with an offer and suddenly the job was eliminated. Never stop interviewing until you have an offer and accepted it. Job searching is tough and akward. Dont give up!

Keep applying, nothing is ever confirmed until the offer is given and then you can negotiate your salary. Once you are at that stage then you can get excited.

Does this program also include self-study material, and the classes are just supplementary/optional? I was also looking at Dalton for self-study and Danko for test prep. Thoughts?

TIA
