When a recruiter says “do you have a few minutes to discuss your interview” ummmm idk how to take that! I made it to the 3rd interview and no lie, the last one was short and a lil informal and rough.

I feel like that’s leading to a verbal offer over the phone. If it was a rejection they would’ve just emailed

Stop worrying. Could be good, could be bad. Point is - it’s beyond your control. Relax, keep applying, and be confident. I recently left IBM and understand your situation. Surround yourself with “I’m the shit” energy

Agree with IBM2. Nobody cares enough to call you about a rejection, unless you’re a Partner referral

The interviewer did say she was going to invite more people to do a final even though I was told this was my final. I’m just a lil nervous cause the recruiter told me I did good in all my other interviews (via email) so it’s weird to see talk about it in this one. I really want an offer... I’m ready to leave and get better pay!

Always get back to your recruiter after an interview. They will advocate for you with the hiring manager, so they need to know the status and an update. Also, they are often the means through which the interviewer learns how you feel regarding the position

Where is this at?

Accenture @IBM1

Thanks everyone!!! I’ll let you guys know!

Suggestion...prepare your points for both...

Know your key questions if it is an offer.
Also, know how to ask for feedback and advice if they decide you are not a fit.

Getting the wrong job is worse ...

And realize if it is a no go, may have less to do with you than internal politics and pressures

Yeah most recruiters wouldn't follow up with you if you're out of consideration so I'd take that as a good sign. But as everyone said nothing is guaranteed. What group is the role?

It’s for SAP @Accenture1

Got an update.... the region I applied for is on a “soft hiring freeze” so my info was sent to another recruiter in another region

I had an initial interview on Wednesday. About an hour later, I got a call from an internal recruiter from the same company wanting to follow up and see how the interview went. I didn’t see the voicemail until the following morning when I was at work and called her back that afternoon when I was out of work. I still haven’t heard from her. Is this normal? Should I not try calling back again? I’ve been at my job for several years, so I am unfamiliar with how I should handle a situation like this.
