Hi Emma,

In general, results can take anywhere from a day to many weeks. I know this isn't an ideal answer but ultimately timelines are highly variable.

Stay patient and good luck!

Hey there,

The process is usually quite fast due to high demand. I would expect from application to offer between 2 to 6 weeks (depending on your schedule).

Fingers crossed!

Cheers,

Florian

Hi Emma, 


if you are applying within the recruiting waves (fresh grads) then the process takes approx. 6-8 weeks, 2 weeks in between each step. As a regular role application, it can take up to 6 months given the number of people that must interview you and their packed agendas. 


Good luck!
Lucie
