I wouldn’t be concerned about the fact that McK is acting in good faith and almost certainly this process will result in you receiving the offer very soon. However immigration laws are beyond the company’s control and that can derail things. Even if that happens, I’ve seen MBBs going above and beyond to make the candidate join the company by having him/her work temporarily in another country’s office while immigration problem is resolved.

For this reason I would say that you should just be patient and let the process make its course while also not stopping your job hunting processes elsewhere quitting your job yet. If you are particularly nervous and would like reassurance I would ask for a quick call from HR and see if it’s possible to get a formal, binding, offer in writing that outlines what happens if immigration process doesn’t end successfully (work from another country). Again I would be very polite and nice about and it’s really more for your own mental reassurance than for anything else because, as multiple emails and SMS proved, they want you!

hope it helps,
