It's been a week since I had a first round interview for strategic finance at Apple and haven't heard back. Bad sign? Seemed to go well and guy even said he hopes to see me around the office

if your first-round interview is with Recruiter, it would be a bad sign. My experience is that as long as you receive nothing within one week after talking with recruiter, it means failure. but it is hard to say, keep confident and good luck.

It’s honestly hard to tell. A lot of factors in play (# of candidates, req still posted, potential stakeholder vacations/out of office). I wouldn’t fret after only a week, especially given this is peak season so scheduling may be challenging for HR

Yep. I literally had the same thing happen to me.🧍🏻‍♀️

Like they said they liked you and then just didn't get back to you?

Hang tight you are still good, working in big tech now

Majority of FAANG is in process of evaluating headcount for Q4/Q1 start dates

Apple doesn’t seem like they would be slowing down

That makes sense, recruiter mentioned they are in the middle of 9/30 budgeting. Thanks

A week is honestly nothing. I had a month pass between my first round hiring manager interview and my next round for Netflix

No it can be longer my experience for being employed was 2 months start to finish with 3 interviews, advice would be to have other interviews for other jobs as you can be hanging on for a while. Think what’s best for you and not the companies you are looking to be employed by.

Hiring at Apple is super team based and some of our recruiters are just slow—there is no general rule for hiring

Hello,

Currently, in accenture. I have had very bad billable hours and not much achievement this fiscal year. I am worried of getting fired, so i applied for another job. Got offered may be 5% above my current pay with 5k bonus, but in lower level at Deloitte. I think working lower level will give me more opportunities to learn as i think i have lot to learn. I made decision based on my gut and accepted the offer. I have not talked to anyone on accenture side yet. What you think?
