MBB recruiter said I'd hear about my application (whether or not I'd get an interview) by today. haven't heard a word - what should I do? I'm thinking of sending a gentle reminder tomorrow morning, but definitely don't want to look pushy

R u a lateral hire?

like

yes, lateral! looks like I'm in a similar spot as a few other posters here

If they told you that you would hear by today and you don’t then it’s totally okay to follow up in the morning. Just be gentle and polite in the email

If it is campus recruiting, then it means you prob didn’t get an invite. All our invites were sent to us last week and rejections come out later

Which MBB and region is this for?

McK, US

This year I have given 17 interviews in this year, some of interviews has been cracked till 2 round , most of all got rejected and then other couple of interviews I did followed up 1 - 2 months , I an exhausted while doing this..now the funny part is I cleared 3 rounds of 3 companies in different time intervals ( plz note I am not playing counter- bcz I don't have anything in my end to counter) HR discussion has been done CTC discussed I was happy But now I was told to put on hold...waiting

So I'm in a weird space at the moment. I've been interviewing with a lot of agencies in the past couple of months, and I keep getting the same response of "I need more agency experience." How am I supposed to get that experience if one of the things holding me back is not having enough agency experience?

When this came up in an interview how did you address it? On my resume it does show that I’m currently a photographer w/ my own biz. I was selected for an interview.
