Timeline for intern final decision

Hey everyone,
I had my final summer internship interview this week on Friday with MBB (middle east). How long does it take to hear back either a yes or a no?
Will be very helpful to take down the nervousness :) I would just love to be there and work with such insightful people :)

Hi there,

It usually takes 1-2 weeks, depending on how long it takes the recruiter to match all interviewers' agendas for the final decision call.

You can check how the decision is being made here: MBB Hiring Hacks - Behind the Curtain Secrets

Best,

Alberto

Hey Alberto thanks, Just curious if the decision process is the same for internship and FT? Or is it faster and step-by-step (i.e.one round to next and the outcome depends on final round only) v/s consensus of consultant opinion for internships too

Hi there,

Ideally next week, but also not out of the question that it could take longer.

Fingers crossed for you :)

Hi,

Normally it takes 1-2 weeks based on my experience/coachees experience. 

You've done your best, and waiting is the hardest part often ;) Its out of your control, so just be patient and wait to hear the official result.

All the best!

Hi there,

Q: How long does it take to hear back either a yes or a no?

In most cases, offers are extended within a few days, but sometimes it takes longer.

If you don’t hear back within one week, it is fine to follow up with HR.

Good luck!

Hi there,

the decision could be communicated as early as within a few days or it could take up to two weeks. It depends on a few factors (e.g. scheduling conflicts for final interviewer alignment, additional candidates being interviewed in their final rounds).

You have done all you can at this point and will just have to wait for the official feedback. 
 

Fingers crossed it will be positive news

Usually a couple of weeks.

But if it takes longer, it has no meaning per se, just means that they took longer to make the decision.

Hey,

Up to two-week waiting time is ok, after that I'd follow up with an HR.

Fingers crossed!

Hi there!

It can take anywhere between a day and two weeks (on average). 

Typically it's within the week. 

I waited for 10 days and it wasn't pleasant. 

Hope you hear back from them soon!
