Hi Anonymous,

Latest after 2 weeks it's definitely fair to inquire about your status in a friendly way.

However, I wouldn't email HR - better grab your phone and call them to get an answer!

Hope that helps - if so, please be so kind to give it a thumbs-up with the green upvote button below!

Hello!

Within a week everything is normal and you should wait. 

Longer, contact HR.

Hope it helps!

Cheers,

Clara

Hi there,


It depends on the firm. MBB are usually quite fast in providing feedback after a final (usually 1-2 days). Strategy& is notorious for taking long time, at least in the Middle East.

Best,

Hi,

As Francesco mentioned, it totally depends on the company, office, time of year, etc. However, 1-2 weeks isn't all that uncommon.

I recommend you wait until the end of the week and send a follow-up email next week (around Tuesday)

Hi A,

It depends on different aspects.

But if you do not get a reply next week just contact HR for an update.

Best,

André

Hi there,

it depends on the firm / geography / HR. It's totally fine to kindly ask for feedback after two weeks.
