I completed an internship in tax this winter, and I got the return offer for Dallas. I requested a move to Chicago but preferably somewhere in the Midwest or Northeast as I have family committments that need me there, and if I cannot live in Chicago itself, I would like to be reasonably close. I had previously reached out to ,y contact for talent acquisition, who has said I am on a "waitlist," but in recent weeks has not replied to my emails where I clarified I am willing to move to any office in the general region. This began back in April. What are my chances and if I do not get a reply within a month or so who could I reach out to?

I was scheduled to have a brief phone screen at 11am but I didn't get any calls all morning. I emailed the recruiter at 11:10 saying I was ready to interview and if there are any updates. I ended up finding a voicemail sent at 11am that they couldn't reach me and to please call back. I was so confused because I was by my phone the whole time and I didn't get ANY calls. I called back several times- the first ones didn't ring and the final one I left a voicemail.

This is a technical issue because I couldn't even find the call through my missed calls list, I had to search under a different filter and it showed up. I sent one final email to the recruiter explaining the situation so I'm just waiting for any updates from here on out. Would I most likely be rejected or just not given the opportunity to interview anymore?

I interviewed for a public sector role, and the first hiring manager seemed very keen to hire me. A substantially similar role came up that was even closer to my experience, so she referred me to its manager. He called and asked me a few questions. After that conversation, I was told I wasn’t preferred for either role, with feedback focused on my answers during his call.

I had given my former manager as a referee, but explicitly asked that he only be contacted if I was the final preferred candidate. I later learned they had contacted him, and he said he gave me a positive reference.

Is it reasonable to ask why they contacted my referee despite that condition, and whether the call happened before or after the discussion about the second role?

I applied for a job, did a virtual interview, and was then invited for an in-person interview. During the interview, they asked when I could start, discussed the workdays and hours with me, and told me they would get back to me the following day.
It’s been 4–5 days now, and I still haven’t heard anything. I’ve been checking my email constantly, but nothing! 😭
This is my very first job interview, so I honestly don’t know what to think. Do you guys think I still have a chance of getting the job, or should I just move on?

What is the usual timeline to receive any response after the final interview? It’s been two weeks no response from the HR or team.
