I'd keep doing what you're doing. If you hear from them, great. If not, you got ghosted. To your question, my now-employer took so long that when the recruiter called me for an interview I had forgotten I applied for a job with them.

It took about 3 and a half months from when they first emailed me to when I signed the offer.

Recruiter to set up an interview. It is a big agency in LA. Do I still have a shot? Does anyone got an offer two or 3 months after the interview? The CD said few projects fell through so they not in a rush to fill a position any more but they have to do it sooner or later. I am applying to other places but this job is really important to me. 🤞🏼

Just signed an offer letter for a job I applied to on July 26. My start date is still four weeks out. Be patient but keep applying other places!

Sounds like they don’t have the workload available. Bring in accounts if you can and really want to work there. They can’t take you on speculation that they might win later.

Junior here. How common is it to be nudged off a brief when you can't get ideas through internally? My partner and I are often put on the same briefs as more experienced (sometimes senior) teams.
