HR said I got an offer, but waiting to hear back from seniors - need help
Hi All,
I recently interviewed with a Toronto based REPE shop which I really like as a long term fit, the people along with the mandate are great. 2.5 weeks ago I met with a senior partner who interviewed me without my resume, and the discussion was very casual.
Last Monday the head of HR called me saying that a senior partner will be touch mid week, and hopefully a formal offer by end of week, she also wanted to discuss compensation numbers, and mentioned the team/people who interviewed me had very positive feedback. I didn't hear from anyone on the team so I sent her a follow up yesterday and heard nothing back. I was just wondering if I should be concerned, or if the firm is dealing with some admin work regarding a potential offer. It's a great place with great people, communication can be a bit interrupted with the firm given how busy they can get, and it is the holiday season.
Thank you!
Hey there,
Based on the most helpful WSO content, it's not uncommon for the hiring process to take a bit longer than initially stated, especially during busy periods or holiday seasons. It's also possible that they're still finalizing some administrative details regarding your potential offer.
You've done the right thing by sending a follow-up email. If you don't hear back within a week, it might be worth sending another polite follow-up. Remember, persistence shows your interest and dedication, but it's also important to be patient.
In the meantime, keep your spirits high and continue exploring other opportunities as well. The job search can be a roller coaster, but remember, every roller coaster has its ups and downs. Keep your hands inside the vehicle and enjoy the ride!
Best of luck!
