Mck Application Status

Hi, I applied for Associate role as an APD. On my application portal, the status of my application changed from “Submitted" to “Submitted - In Progress” 

Do you think this means anything? I know I'm overthinking it and knowing won't change the outcome, but I can't help it.

Hi there, 

I know the feeling of being overly anxious – nothing wrong with that! It just means a lot to you, which is great.

As for the actual question, it most likely indicated that someone in HR double clicked on your application to have a look. That being said, expect this to become quite a waiting game from now on – this part of the process can be very slow, which says nothing about the outcome!

Best of luck!

It means that your application has been opened and is being reviewed. The only status change that really matters is when you are invited for interview or if you are told they will not be progressing any further.

Hi there,

It's really quite simple: They're now assessing your application. Once they're done, they will either invite you to interview or not!

Hi there, congratulation on applying! This the first step to the offer :) 

This status means that your application has been opened and is in review by the recruiter (as opposed to submitted but not looked at yet).

Good luck to you, fingers crossed!
