I too prefer dogs to consulting
Well if the offer had been extended earlier perhaps he would have taken it.
And in reality better to find out now rather than have him accept/renege
Even my Google recruiting cycle was 3 weeks, and that was considered long. Why on earth would you need to think about it for 2 months? At that point, I’d lose interest in your role, try and find a better one, likely get something else in the pipeline, and give you some lame excuse about buying a dog
Honestly, what makes you think anyone would wait around for 2 months for a job offer?
Two months? I’d pick a dog over you too.
McK, to be fair you guys usually reject me in under 24h, so I still fully respect your firm!
Was he an associate at a consulting firm 😂
Don’t take so long...
And?
Ugh I hate when people do that. I referred 2 people too and explained in lengthy details the job and the culture and the travel. Then they reject the offer or withdraw when they get it. But yes I guess it's better to get a rejection than bring someone with your name on them then they turn out disengaged or not into the job
Gotta appreciate him being transparent
@G2 lol no. There’s data on the average Googler recruiting cycle on Moma, and it’s awful. Congrats on 3 weeks though
So weird to wait two months. I try to get offers out in a week or less (4 days was my best =].
Phone interview (maybe two of I'm not sure). In person asap and offer out same or next day. I feel like that is how the process should go.
I can't do anything without good people and I'd rather not compete when unemployment is 3.7%
Starting a new job Monday, and that was a 3-month process from initial screen to offer. I had other irons in the fire, but this was the job I wanted. It was rough though; I could see taking something else if they made a good offer in the interim.
To be fair. Lots of ppl spend time interviewing and never get offers. Go to 2nd choice. I agree seems like a flake. Dodged a bullet. OP isnt upset about the turn down. But 2 months isnt a long time, especially to decide : oh I want a dog". Flake.or liar
G1, we can tell ;)
I’ll do it. I’m in consulting for the travel perks only.
Tell them it’s now a service dog - problem solved!
I’m with Google 2. Just turned down a job that took that long. In the meantime I got interested more in other opportunities
on to the next one
