Those who have experience with both companies… all other things equal, would you rather work at state street or JPM? Also, is it fairly common for recruiters at SS to ghost candidates between the interview and offer stage? I sent a note letting them know of a competing offer and asking if they thought a decision would be made this week as I’d like to make the most informed decision possible… the email was very well worded and I have heard nothing back, not even a “we expect to know by x day”

Their recruiting dept is outsourced and I can’t tell if it’s a lack of response from the hiring managers or the recruiters… but yup, slow..

So frustrating! You would think when a candidate says they have another offer and need to know by the end of the week, that they would at least respond or send a holding message… something, anything.

I had something similar with JPM! The recruiters just…ghosted me and the hiring manager keeps posting the role months later.

I don’t have experience working at either company. However, if STT can’t get its act together in time, you should do what you need to do. I don’t suppose you tried contacting the hiring manager directly for the STT job? That might elicit a faster response than trying to go through the recruiter.

So technically, I already did do what I need to do with the other job, but the longer I wait the harder it is to not burn a bridge. Since JPM is through an external recruiter and contract to hire; I was honest with the recruiter and he told me to accept now to secure the role and if I got a better offer, it was absolutely fine to back out any time and wouldn’t be held against me. JPM is an excellent fit, pay and manager, but they will not bend on 3 days in person. The beat scenario for my family right now is fully remote, which is what SS was offering and why I wish they would figure it out… because if the pay is similar, I’ll have no choice but to back out and take SS offer as my kids need me home / not commuting an extra 10hrs a week.

Boomer. I am in between jobs. Laid off in 10/21 after 16+ yrs, with an ABA firm. RIF. Still on excellent terms. Took my time living off generous package and didn’t seriously start applying until 01/22. Made a rookie mistake and accepted first offer.
Turns out job wasn’t as advertised. Mutual parting of ways 3/22. Due diligence is critical.
Now interviewing a LOT. Some temp work, I still have “it”. I relate to all gens. Willing to mentor AND learn from all. Tech savvy, CTE from day one. Leads?

I was just informed after the third round of interviews they’d like at least 5 references, two must be supervisors. My last job was a temporary remote job where I didn’t really interact with my supervisor and the jobs before that were at my family’s business (I do not speak to any of them for serious personal reasons.) Anything before that was grad school and I haven’t kept in contact with any professors from over five years ago. What should I do? 😕

Thoughts? I’m going to drive myself crazy analyzing everything.
