Need advice on follow ups: Had initial call with recruiter that seemed to go well. He said to follow up mid next week if I didn’t hear from him. I did and he said the team hasn’t gotten back to him yet with interview selections but “there should be movement soon.” That email was Dec. 17th. Would you follow up again OR wait it out because not much happens during the xmas-nye time OR assume you weren’t selected for an interview? TIA

I think it was close to the holidays and people’s vacation time. I’d reach back out now that we’re in Jan - what do you have to lose?

Good point EY- just starting out in the recruiting process so I’m not sure what the typical timeframes for recruiters are

He did mention on our call that they were at the beginning of their recruiting process for the position. He ALSO did say they’re looking to have it filled by late Jan and there’s two round of interviews...

And I don’t know if it makes a difference but he is an internal recruiter for the company, not with an outside firm.
