With positions on hold due to Covid, how often is too often to follow up with an email? I have followed up once already, but don’t want to be a pest. Just want to be clear I want the position. (For reference, job interview process started 3 months ago and followed up 2 months ago)

Even with the pandemic I think that’s a pretty long time to not hear back. We’ve been hiring and are still getting back to people within a couple of weeks. You could try another follow up, but be prepared to chalk it up as a loss

Yeah I wondered, it was located in a hot spot and that position isn’t being hired for anywhere else in the world with this company right now... so was like could be either or, the length of time did feel like a lot though I agree

Mate you were ghosted... just accept that and move forward

And I thought me following up every two weeks was too much lol. If they tell me I’ll hear back in a week I’ll follow up, then 2 week increments after. Not getting the job is the worst that can happen.

Yeah. You might want to move on. I just got ghosted from a role after two strong interviews. Such is life.

Hi peeps!
Got two offers on the table, who love to hear your advice!

- Finance Business Partner for a late stage (Series D/valuation 3B) startup tech company

- Corp Dev analyst role for a listed niche gambling company

The tech job pays 15k more, but from what I can see will be a cluster and super long hours (has EU stakeholders). Maybe a pipe dream, but I want to have a "somewhat" decent wlb while still growing my career toward strategy and finance.

Thoughts on which one is better?
