Thanks everyone for easing my stress. Signed the offer today.

Not sure how common it is but it took over a month after my verbal offer at Goldman. So it’s possible, some it takes time for sign offs I guess.

Ty! Seems to be a similar deal.

No that's not normal

Try following up. It is better to know the status of your offer. Companies nowadays do whatever they want, and they have no morals.

I really don't trust or rely on verbal offers. I will have the assurance once the offer is printed on a paper and signed by me and the company representative. Otherwise, I will keep on accepting invitations from all other companies I applied with.

If they have continued to communicate with you, I would not be overly concerned. However, if you are feeling uncomfortable, it wouldn’t be bad to tell your recruiter that you are starting to feel uneasy with the delay and ask for another status update.

like

Appreciate your input

It sometimes can. I would say overall it usually doesn't take that long. But you may just want to follow up. You may want to make sure that they haven't been put on any sort of hiring freeze.

It depends on the company and its bureaucracy. Some companies require A LOT of approvals before they send a job offer. But yes, it was a rookie mistake. Next time until you start a job, do not consider it a close deal.

For sure lesson learned. Luckily it seems to be solid, but agreed I gave myself a disadvantage by not continuing with other strong leads for negotiation leverage. I did not realize I’d have so much time to do so.

I work at MS and hiring has currently tightened up a bit and there are currently some temporary / extra layers of approvals. If the recruiter is staying in touch I would not be too concerned.

like

Thanks - I think it’s the extra approval red tape like you said. Had a reaffirming chat with HR today. Appreciate you for easing my concerns.

Yes. But it's not common. Candidates usually receive the written offer after 3-4days. You can email them for a follow up.

Hello anyone reading this! I wanted to ask for any realistic, recommended job positions from someone with more knowledge and experience. I am graduating this December with my BBA and am ready to leave the job I’m in now. I’ve been applying for a range of positions I qualify for and nothing so far, which I expected. I have 3 years of experience in management operations but also have 6 years of experience with child care, is that why I may be getting rejected? Maybe I’m overthinking my resume? 😅

I am still applying to new jobs but I was told it is impossible to move up the grade level now. Everyone is telling me to stick with the government. What are your thoughts?

I currently make 78k at Lockheed but I’m not doing what I’d like to be doing and i felt stuck and after many conversations with my manager and no solution in sight, I started applying elsewhere. I just recently got an offer from a smaller AI company for 95k that I plan to accept. I’m happy to make the jump, I just don’t know how my manager/coworkers will react when I tell them I’m leaving.

I have a third round interview this Thursday, but after I sent my availability, I booked a flight for work that is causing a problem. The interview ended up scheduled for 3:30-4:15, and I'm supposed to be on a 5pm flight out of LGA. Is there a reliably quiet place at LGA to do the interview (I don't have lounge access)? Would it be a bad idea to say my availability changed and I can't do that time slot anymore? Or should I cancel / rebook my flight to later at night?
