Currently been interviewing at an agency for a little over two months. Being kept in the dark mostly. Do you think I’m being strung along?

Took <1 month to get my current role. But I spent 6 months interviewing for a role a few years ago. Sometimes the need (or approval of the opening) changes mid-recruiting. If they’re keeping you on the hook, they like you enough to hope the position will re-open. That doesn’t mean stop looking elsewhere, though.

We try and complete the hiring process from start to finish in under a month. That being said, sometimes the client we are hiring for is stinging us along and taking awhile to sign the SOW. Could be more of the new client taking time than anything you are doing wrong. I recommend you continue to apply for other jobs.

Hello,
I had an interview last week (25th Oct) with PWC UK, anyone have any idea when I am likely to find out the outcome. Cant find anything about it online, I am so impatient, I need to just try and forget about it, but I dont want to invest my time in applying for other roles either. I feel like everything is on pause at the moment. If anyone has any idea’s or knows of any delays etc I’d be grateful if you could share.
