First or last, never the one right before lunch.

No difference first or second day though

That depends. Are you a strong candidate or a weak one? Studies show decision making abilities go down as the day progresses.

2nd person after lunch. They're not waiting for lunch, and have gotten back into the swing of things. 2nd person of the day is the next best option.

Let's say I'm strong. So leaning towards afternoon? Last person?

No difference if last on first day vs second day?

So I had been working as medical interpreter up to the early part of this year. Today, during an interview, the Director with whom I was interviewing genuinely urged me to consider pursuing a career as a PA or even attempt to go to medical school. I had considered it in passing before but today was about the third or fourth time that someone had earnestly nudged me in that direction. Has anyone here made such a career pivot before? I love working in healthcare, there’s nothing like it.

I applied to a job at KPMG and did the first two rounds of interviews, general interview, then case study and competency. Never before have I had such a positive feedback at the end of an interview of the 2nd, both said really like me, I did well etc.
It's now been 3 weeks since the interview and I still haven't heard back from the team other than the odd HR email saying they are following up with them. Is there something going on internally, I.e hiring freeze in the London office atm?
