Interviewing for a position not held by anyone previously.. for a manager position. I would be leading the accounting department reporting to the controller When I asked about expectations, the answer made me pause. He wasn’t really sure and said it’ll be ever evolving. This is my 4th interview and now I’m not sure if I should continue. Other than that everything about the company sounded great.

Can you expand on what exactly bothers you about that response? Was the JD very descriptive and detailed? Is the person that couldn’t respond on expectations is the person you would be reporting to?

Hey All,
I finished a third round interview, and HR contacted me that afternoon saying I had positive feedback across the board and they would contact me the next day regarding next steps. It’s been two days and they finally get back to me saying they haven’t been able to sync with the hiring manager but will keep me posted. Honestly I wish they would talk with the hiring manager and then let me know the decision instead of checking in. It’s messing with my emotions.

Have you started a new job without taking a break? How was it? I thought I’d have more time to give my notice but the background check took longer than I thought so now I have no wiggle room between my start date and the two week notice.

I haven’t heard much since then. Should I be worried? How much longer will I have to wait?
