When the positions you’re looking for at the company you want to be at are open. There’s no “ideal” time. When we open a req for a head count we just want it filled asap. This is not like trying to buy a car.

Usually spring/summer I think

Now

October

In the middle of busy season so you have a new job right after.

I usually apply to jobs around June/july.
I agree with people above. You should have something lined up before you put in your resignation.

How confident were you that you landed a job after the second interview? My friends tell me the fact that I had a second interview is pretty much a guarantee that I will be selected. I am not so sure. So I thought I would check with the fish bowl.

I received an email from the HR at Monitor Deloitte that I've cleared the case round and a back to back discussion with partner and director of the team will be scheduled. Been almost 3 days since this email, haven't received asking for availability from the scheduling team. This for a role with their Lifesciences Strategy practice in the UK. How long do they typically take to schedule the final round of discussions? Do they eliminate candidates in this round?

An Amazon recruiter reached out about accounting roles, but the posts in this bowl are about Seattle.

Base pay seemed pretty low in other posts, but they were a year old and for Seattle.
