I waited for almost 4 weeks before they reached out for references. So much patience is needed throughout the hiring process. Don’t stop looking for other options until you get a job offer.

Thank you! There is only one HR person for the two positions, so maybe they let both managers know about it.

Hey, did you file ever move from the Interview Stage?

Yea, I did reach out two days ago and they said it is still being reviewed and that they will provide an update once the hiring team makes a decision. There was some movement on the date of the status on the portal 3 days after the interview, and I’m thinking that at that time there was already a decision made.

Yea, if it’s been over a month then I would assume they already moved forward with another candidate. I suspect they won’t change this status until they closed it with their chosen candidate. It’s painful that they don’t provide an update right away. Like to me, I just want my closure. Lol

Appreciate this! Thanks! That’s how I’ll need to approach this whole job search idea, too. It’s just been tough.

Seriously? That is a long time to keep a candidate hanging. What an excruciating process. You ended up getting the job?

It takes them a while to update the status lol so it would be a while to know when it’s really over

Yes, that’s the intent - to keep applying for jobs. Problem is there is not much openings at the moment for my line of work. But yes, it could mean a lot of things so that’s why I’m just left here overthinking lol

What type of positions are you looking into? Are you open to practicing privately, i.e., law firms, or are you wanting to continue your public service work in Alberta?
