How long from call to scheduled interview?

Post by Anonymous User » Wed Feb 16, 2022 4:25 pm

I recently got a call to interview with a biglaw firm in NYC. I was told they'd circle back with available dates for the interview. It's been over 24 hours, but I haven't heard back about scheduling the interview.

Am I just being neurotic in thinking they are ghosting me, or is this normal?

During OCI, the firm that ultimately hired me took three business days to schedule my callback interview after requesting my availability for such. I experienced the same neuroticism, but would not panic if I were you.

Thanks, that does easy the anxiety a bit. Did you follow up or did you just wait until they got back to you?

I did not follow up. It's been quite some time, so I cannot recall with precision; but I think I may have had tentative plans to follow up the next day if they were still silent.
