Imbellus results

Hello everyone,

I did Imbellus almost six weeks ago but still didn't get any feedback. I tried reaching out to the recruiting team a week or two ago, but they remain silent. 

Any ideas what could be the reason?

Hi there,

I don't want to jump to conclusions but it doesn't sound great.

I would give them a call and get them on the phone. Best way to see what's going on!

Hey there,

I would definitely call them right away. Does not sound like McK HR at all and imho is quite rude. You do not need an excuse to make a simple phone call...especially after 6 weeks.

The longest one of my candidates actually waited for the result was 11 days I believe and the average was < a week.

Let us know the outcome.

Cheers,
Florian

Hi there,

This is unusual as you should get results within 2 weeks.

If you wrote them an email, I agree with Ian and would call the office with the “excuse” to check if they received correctly the test results, given you did not hear from them.

Best,
Francesco

Giving them a call doesn't sound like a bad idea given the fact you've been waiting for too long already.

Hello!

Sorry to hear that, does not sound great. 

However, they do need to give you an answer, so keep insisting. 

Hope it helps!

Cheers, 

Clara

Hello. What's the update now? And what office is this? I did my imbellus test 3 days ago and I'm also expecting feedback. It's for an analyst role.

@zadok, congrats! What to do the results say or is it an interview invite directly?
