So given my title maybe I show know this.. but I need some guidance on a situation. I’m currently interviewing with an interesting company that I’m very positive about and expecting an offer next week. I just realised that they have a more senior role (and closer to my level) posted on their career site that I think would be a better match. How should I address this? We are currently talking about a temporary role too so I think this would be even better.

Let them know you would rather be considered for the permanent position, asap

^what they said; if you have a chance maybe try to feel out for more details on why you weren't referred to that position to begin with. Bit of a long shot but maybe they were running a search for both and only intended on filling one?

Tbh this would sour me a lot on pursuing either role.

Thanks a lot. It’s kinda a weird one because this was a referral because the person knew the person leaving. But today in my interview it was mentioned that they are also looking for the more senior role.

I agree with the others who have commented here. Reach out to your recruiter asap and ask them what steps you need to take in order to be considered for the FTE role.

Thanks everyone for input. What would be the best way to address this to the recruiter/hiring manager?

This. I went through this w my current company. I just said “I saw X role that more aligns with my interest and would like to be considered. What’s the process?”

Hi Guys,

After my HR round today, Hr called up and said that will move forward with the offer but approvals with higher management might take some time as there is a hiring freeze.
Do you think offer will be released? And how much time these approvals take ?

She mentioned at the end that they are definitely going to offer as all feedbacks are positive.
But it all depends on the approvals.
