Solve timeline

How long do you usually have between submitting application and getting solve link, getting solve link and needing to complete it (hopefully you can book a time a week or so out?), and then hearing back?


Thank you

Hi,
Waiting period: I have seen with my candidates usually 1–2 week waiting period after applying to get the Solve link, but depends on geography, office, current demand. 

Booking: Don't worry, you can typically book the Solve test up to a week out.

Results and next steps usually come 1–2 weeks after completing Solve.

Good luck!

It really depends on the office and specific time of the year, but can take as long as 6-7 weeks. If I had to pick an interval, I would say 4-6 weeks in general, sometimes +/- 1 week.

Hi,

It's depending on the office, team of the year (hiring season vs holiday) and open positions. I would say it takes 2-8 weeks.

Good luck with your preparations.

Varies widely. 

I'd say a week is the most common one I hear, but it can be even a month or more. 

Follow-up with them after a few weeks if you haven't heard back.

Best,
Cristian

Hi,

Waiting time is usually: 2-3 weeks, but it is office and time of application period dependent (did you apply for a analyst role post graduation?) busy times will create a backlog of usually another 2-3 weeks. 

Next step in process: Another 2-3 weeks usually, but again depends on office and time period of application.

Bottom line: VARIES alot - so if you do have the recruiting teams contact details - send an email and ask.

 

Good luck!
