It’s very abnormal. Google recruiters should always close the loop, and even schedule calls when you’re no longer continuing the process.

How long has it been since your last interview? Did you meet with HM and another teammate or just recruiter and HM?

This timeframe is normal unfortunately. Feedback takes ages to come in from formal interviews.
They’re probably also interviewing others and want to complete those before they make a decision.
They’re unlikely ghosting you- just don’t have anything to share yet.

I’m in the same boat. 4 interviews + HM chat. It’s been 3 weeks since - radio silence.

Very normal

I am visiting Moab and Arches National Park this year, and would love to learn more about biking in/around the park!

Are you able to ride the bikes on the roads throughout the park?
If so, are there places to lock up the bike at trailheads and/or parking lots to take in?
I haven't been to this national park yet, so I was curious how it compares to Zion for example, where it is easy to bike from "stop to stop" to view the scenery or do a hike!

Thank you!

I have an interview for an in house position (only attorney) at a small non-profit focused on conservation easements. I am a transactional associate at a mid sized law firm.

Thoughts on making the shift?
