No offer? Hmm

Did you follow up with a thank you? You could now and ask again abot next steps. People delay and forget all he time

Worst feeling ever. Been there, OP. Hang in there, but also be prepared for unfortunate news at this point

Wait 6 months - not joking either, hiring at EY is a joke

Probably true for all the majors.

Do you hear those church bells...they go ding ding ding!

Sorry couldn't resist
