Looking for some advice here.
Had a really great or what seemed to be a great second interview with the hiring manger last week and he replied to my thank you saying he enjoyed speaking with me and moving forward with next steps and ended it with we”ll be in touch. It will be a week tomorrow and I have not heard back. Should I reach out to follow up with him? What’s the protocol in a situation like this?
Thanks!!

Yes, be bold in what you want. Getting hired is all about timing.

If it has been a week then I think you have the reason to ask them regarding the status of your application. There is no harm in trying and at least you are informed in the earliest time possible whether it turned out positive or otherwise.

Reaching out just shows how much you want it and you will be one they remember if you stick out. I put in an app myself a while back, had a request for an interview yet a week went by and they hadn’t given me a date and time to meet them, I reached out and had an interview day and time set by the next day!! I was worried to that I was just bothering them but, if you ask in a way that’s respectful and letting them know you appreciate their time and want it, they will respond.

Hello recruiters, happy Monday!

I want to know why recruiters ask me in an interview if I am looking at other opportunities, or if I am interviewing at other companies. If I say yes they will ask at what stage I am.

I just want to know the reason behind it and if there is a right answer to this question!

Please share if you know anything about it.
