Well, I wish I could have this kind of outlook. Is anyone else out there finding the job market beyond difficult right now? So many applications, either no response or a swift rejection. It's so discouraging.

Hi Fishes,

I need help from Tavisca by JPMC guys.
Recently I had an interview for the Cloud Lead position, also done with all-round of interview including technical and HR salary discussion but after 1.5 week not received any update from HR about offer letter release or to share document. any idea how much time would HR take after salary negotiation to process with next step ?

I had my last round of interview (3rd round) 3 weeks back in Citi and my hiring manager told me that recruitment process is fast in Citi so you will hear from HR very soon for the next step but HR is not responding my phone and email. My profile is showing under business review stage. What is the meaning of business review? How long should I wait for the response? I really need this job.
