Interviewed with EY more than a month ago. Was told they want to proceed with an offer and asked to share comp details. Dead silence for 3 weeks since. Does it take this long or should I just move on?

No our recruiting team is a joke, the partner is probably dragging ass but it's their job to get that partner on target

I was in the same spot. Very positive feedback throughout. They came back 2 months later with "unfortunately...". Most unprofessional recruiting experience I've had.

Sounds like ACN

Don't worry it will eventually come. After my interview I received a positive feedback from the HR in about 45 minutes.. but offer letter took almost 4-6 weeks, I assumed they had decided to move on without me! But finally received the offer and was non-negotiable. Be prepared to negotiate when it eventually comes!

My offer came pretty quick. I was at Pdubs at the time and told EY they needed to be quick b/c I had another offer.

That matters..a competing offer

Same for me. I was referred and the whole process took months with long silences. I had assumed several times they weren’t interested, but finally got an offer. Assume nothing.

Just ask them

Going through something similar with another firm. Process has been a loooong process but it's all about pipeline and what is there for you to support. If they said they will proceed with an offer they most likely will, they have no need to lie when they can just say no thank you. Follow up but be patient. It will come.

Hi fishes,
I had interviewed for Cognizant and I was asked to submit my documents for offer letter release. This happened on the same day as my interview(Friday 6th May).

And is there a possibility that they can reject my profile at this stage?

Meanwhile I'm taking other interviews and was offered a promotion at current company, but was very interested in this one. What would you do?
