Are you turning it down because the role / benefits didn't measure up to what you expected or because your current job matched / exceeded them?

Work type + comp isn’t attractive enough for me

Tell them why you can’t/won’t accept and explain what you would like

Do I call? Email?

Agreed with H1 and OW1

Call recruiter or partner...? Thanks a ton guys!

I'd call the Partner. However, think through your reasons before calling. Did the job definition change as you went through the interview process? I say that because you don't want them asking you why you wasted their time if you were never interested in the type of role/work anyway.

Interviewed for a sr. PM last Thursday. Was scheduled for 30min but we went to an hour and had a really good conversation. The questions I got asked I was told the answers were perfect by the hiring manager. I felt really good coming out of it but then followed up with an email thanking them for the time the next day and I never received a response or next steps. Am I thinking too much into it or is it not a good sign?

I am applying for my FL CPA license. The work experience form asks for the start date, end date, and number of weeks employed. If I started working full time 7/20/20, do I just count 52 weeks and put that as my end date (i.e. 7/19/21)? Or should I put today (making it 56 weeks)?
