Hello Respected Novartis fishes,
I don't want to sound repetitive but do we have any updates on the hiring process re-opening?
My offer letter is still stuck into it and I am not able to get to a decision.

didn't pass the loop for an L7 role earlier this month, and i found a good suitable l6 role. One of the interviewers added me on linkedin a few weeks back- is it inappropriate if i reach out to him to say thanks and ask him to put in a word for me with hiring manager for the l6 role?
i don't know y i was not selected, and i think its still worth it to reach out. 1 because i think i did well in the interviews and 2 its saves both of us time - to know if i should pursue further or not. Thoughts?

For those also going through this, any tips on how you manage yourself day to day? What self talk tends to help?
