Is it a good sign if my interviewer (adcom) responded to my thank you email saying it was a pleasure to speak with me? Or does it likely not mean anything?

Well, it can't be a bad sign. That itself should be a good sign?

Well interview doesn’t determine the outcome. ESP interviews not conducted by AO

Well it means they don’t despise you so in that sense it’s a positive. But it means nothing.

Could be politeness or that they liked you. Much more likely to be the former.

Why in the world would a bunch of strangers on an app know this about an unnamed adcom officer at an unnamed school?

Figured it wouldn't hurt to ask since it seems like a lot of people on this bowl have insight into these various intricacies of the process

Depends on the school...most 2nd year interviewers at SOM reply but adcomms interviewers at HBS usually dont

Thanks for the responses all - I'm going to assume it was just them being nice and doesn't mean anything for my decision one way or the other

DMing you!

Not so much an interview tip question, but more a timeline question. Have applied for a role at Deloitte on July 11. The status of my application on the portal has since been updated to “shortlisted” on July 20. I haven’t heard anything about the status of my application other than the updates on the portal. When should I expect to get an update about next steps? Any advice would be greatly appreciated! I’m also based in Melbourne, Australia.
