Deadline to interview timeline

Advanced degree candidate (MD) from a target medical school for Mck and BCG applying to full-time positions for campus hire in the United States. Most of the deadlines I noticed span from mid June to mid July. When should I expect to hear back from the firms (if I do at all) for interview related news post deadline?

Hi there,

While it does depend on the company/channel, you should expect to hear within a few weeks.

So, you should be ready to interview by mid-July.

I always advise my candidates to aim to be 80% case ready before they submit their applications. Things can move quick!

Here's some reading to help you ace those interviews!

Hi there, 

There's no fixed date that's set for this communication. 

As a range, you can expect to hear back in 1-6 weeks. Anything beyond that means that they didn't select your profile. 

Regardless, I'd still check in with them if 4 weeks have passed by and you haven't heard back. Send them a polite note and ask about the progress of your application. 

In the meantime, keep on applying - that's what I always tell candidates. You can leverage the guide below for a step-by-step approach to how to build an application strategy:

Best,

Hi there, 

depends on the office, but usually within a few weeks. Especially true when it's campus recruiting (like your case), as the firms typically have to stick to a recruiting timeline they agreed with the schools. 

Hope this helps.

Hi there,

Q: When should I expect to hear back from the firms (if I do at all) for interview related news post deadline?

It depends on the office, but I would expect a range between 1 week and 1 month after the deadline. If you don’t hear by then, you can follow up with HR to ask for an update.

Good luck!
